[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ?Glitch:
HTC is very clear that this fix is not a driver for Imageon hardware lying dormant in some handsets

Lin provided DailyTech with this official statement:

HTC DOES plan to offer software upgrades that will increase feature functionality, over the air wireless speeds and other enhancements for some of the phones being criticized, but we do not anticipate including any additional support for the video acceleration issues cited in customer complaints. It is important for customers to understand that bringing this functionality to market is not a trivial driver update and requires extensive software development and time.

HTC will utilize hardware video acceleration like the ATI Imageon in many upcoming products. Our users have made it clear that they expect our products to offer an improved visual experience, and we have included this feedback into planning and development of future products.

To address lingering questions about HTC's current MSM 7xxx devices, it is important to establish that a chipset like an MSM7xxx is a platform with a vast multitude of features that enable a wide range of devices with varied functionality. It is common that devices built on platforms like Qualcomm's will not enable every feature or function.

In addition to making sure the required hardware is present, unlocking extended capabilities of chipsets like the MSM 7xxx requires in-depth and time consuming software development, complicated licensing negotiations, potential intellectual property negotiations, added licensing fees, and in the case of devices that are sold through operators, the desire of the operator to include the additional functionality. To make an informed decision about which handset suits them best, consumers should look at the product specification itself instead of using the underlying chipset specifications to define what the product could potentially become.

The Imageon video acceleration hardware is present in the devices in question, however, it appears that the reason no drivers were provided has to do with licensing issues.

Ok, sounds like there might be a legal hang up somewhere, seems they portray it 'beyond their control', so they are sending us the proverbial finger right? Should we respond with an apology about botmasters? Then state that we didn't mean to tip them off to injustice, or maybe there is a problem 'due to circumstances not within our control'?

They clearly profited by misrepresenting the device by publishing the chipset it contained, bait and switch, false advertising, nice corporate poke in the can there HTC, we got the message, you got our money, and we know we can just FSCHKOFF...

My advice to any QC MSM7X00 driven HTC device owner from what ever carrier, is to click http://www.google.com/search?q=class+action+lawyers , pick one that has an information request form with free consultation, submit this thread, the HTCClassaction.org URL, the driver bounty thread, and the petition thread, I have done this already, we will eventually find legal representation, public outcry will cause them legal fees, probably be cheaper to provide the drivers for them, as stated before, they are a corporation, and they only make decisions based on cost (they only speak dollars...)
