HTC Hero was created in 2009.
Sadly, the Sprint HTC Hero does not come with a flash camera... sorry!
Anything that you can add to your SD card. Pictures, contacts, apps, videos, etc. Add all of that to your Hero's SD card, and then use that SD card in your Evo and everything will be there. I did this when i switched from the hero to the evo.

the HD 2 is much more better than the Hero, the full compare below will tell you why
They both are very nice phones. It depends on what you will use it for. For browsing the internet, the Xperia is nice, but if you will mainly use it for talking, get the Hero.
