HTC has announced their new Android Phone, Tattoo(According to the photo HTC released, three colors, Black, White and Purple will be available to choose). That is very similar specifications with HTC Magic, 528 Mhz CPU, 3.2 megapixel color camera , 512 MB ROM. The major difficult is the screen size is 2.8 inch, Magic has 3.2 inch. Moreover, the RAM is a bit less, 256MB. So Tattoo is targeted as lower end market. But there are some improvements than HTC Magic, it has Sense UI and 3.5mm headphone jack. Lastly, there is an interesting change. The trackball is replaced by 4-Way navigation control. I love the trackball of my HTC Magic. It make the navigation much much easier!

Tattoo will be released in Europe arond beginning of October.

I am looking an installer creator for long time. I found Nullsoft Installer, that is free and opensource. I have tried wix installer before, that is too complex to use. Although nullsoft has not a GUI as well, there are a number of scripts and a number of plug-ins provided. I have built some installers without any toubles. However, please run as Administrator in Windows Vista, unless you will get an "Can't open output file" error!
