When is VF scheduled to launch HSDPA and how soon can we expect to see it on handheld devices such as those by HTC?

No dates are set yet, but September seems a good bet. I've seen a couple of PC Cards and a mobile phone. As for smart devices, there's no information on those yet...

AFAIK the HTC Hermes is umts/wcdma only, not HSDPA.

Were you one of the priviledged few that were invited to a "Media Only" display earlier this year? If so, what did you think of it speed/latency wise?

Yes, I was there (http://www.geekzone.co.nz/freitasm/368), but the devices we are talking about were not available back then. The latest news however are on these blog posts:

I can't say more than this...
