Exactly as we predicted it, first HTC banners are appearing since today on the Internet.
HTC bannners look like this:

Uh-oh. Sounds like somebody's panties are all in a bunch because HTC has different (some might consider them "higher") advertising standards than other companies ... you know, companies like Skype.  I could be wrong, though. 
Still, do you serve cheese with that fine whine of yours?

Most of their phones are sold rebadged, It is only when they make a stand and put their own name on operator supplied phones that they will get any brand recognition.
I dont think they're in the position to barter. |

I agree that brand recognition for "HTC" brand has small chances to raise. However not everobody looks what is written under the battery so I don't know about that operator supplied phones making HTC popular...

what are you talking about? the prices that HTC offered to websites were so low that no serious website would accept them but this is beyond the point! The point is that without checking web traffic of various websites HTC's amateurish employee wanted to buy advertising offering peanuts money. And I know that he offered such pathetic money to several websites, SEVERAL !!!! I repeat: SEVERAL. |

Perhaps HTC offered what this site was worth, not the (perhaps) overinflated self-evaluation of the site's owner(s). That might account for msmobiles' seeming over reaction to the original article and their other responses in this thread. I mean, after all, if HTC really offered msmobiles money, and the amount was deemed unacceptable by msmobiles, the discussion would have stopped ... well, at any professionally owned and operated site. But, as is often the case here: You can take the bubbas out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer-park out of the bubbas. And therein lies the crux of the matter.

kupe, stop offending me and try to read the text not superficially!!!
this guy offered peanuts money also to several others websites, websites that have objectively big traffic. Do you understand it kupe? He offered peantus money TO OTHERS!!!! Please stop flaming here that it is all about msmobiles.com ! It is not. It is about amateurish employee of HTC.
you saying kupe that is only about msmobiles.com indicates that you totally don't understand the article. Go back and read it again! |

Once again, I quote you:

So you're saying the HTC marketing manager succeeded in getting HTC banners posted on some sites. Good for him! Good for those sites! That you would have such negative things to say about this can only point to petulance on your part. Petulance on your part, as has been the case in the past, always points to you being snubbed in some fashion. Shall I dredge up all those Mobius and MVP whine-fests you've hosted here to remind you?  Face it - you're whining because HTC snubbed you.

wrong wrong! these sites agreed on super-low peanut prices and this amateurish employee of HTC started thinking that he can offer such low prices to everobody WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT WEB TRAFFIC SIZE of various websites. Don't you agree kupe that such behavior is totally amateurish ? This employee is completely amateurish and this is the bottom line. |

no no no! HTC "snubbed" several other websites too, not just me. It is about being amateurish on the side of this HTC employee it is not about ignoring/snubbing websites anyway. don't you get it? |

I thought so - it is just about you after all.
P.S. I really like how YOU can post responses as fast as you want to, but the rest of us all have to wait around for 15 minutes while your site's archaic keep-out timer slowly ticks along.

I don't understand why people wants to use the kind of brick devices from HTC. If there are 3 times thiner others (for example).
It's a trying to answer for questions "may HTC engineers who make new devices are also amateurs". I did not seen any good design from HTC for months, while others shows many good solutions. I used my last PDA from HTC a year ago, and don't miss. But I still use only Windows' PDA and phones. I will not advertise here what models. |

So cutting to the quick, you are saying look at how much traffic MS Mobiles gets. HTC have not bothered to put in the research. You think advertising on your site is worth more than HTC are offering. That's it
Don't see the need for the OTT hysteria again and slagging off of HTC. So HTC won't pay what you want. Too bad. That's life. Deal with it (rationally) and put your toys back in the stroller. |
