Couple of points on the Titan:
I too was wondering about the Gorilla Glass and why the Titan and several other phones aren't on the website. HTC say they use Gorilla Glass or an equivalent and the reason certain phones aren't on the website is so they can look for alternatives when there are supply problems.
Found a quote too:
On HTC using but not always announcing Gorilla Glass--in short, they want some wiggle room in case of during production they switch to an alternative scratch-resistant screen due to cost or supply issues. What you need to know is that basically all high-end HTC phones have Gorilla Glass or its equivalent on board.

I've just started using my Titan for films and series and it's excellent, the screen quality is really impressive and 16GB gives me enough for music and a film or 2; usually recorded on Media Centre so 3-4GB per film. I have about 60GB of music at home so I'm never going to fit all of that on, but I find I change my music more often depending on the mood I'm in so I don't tend to have music on my phone for months. I'll remove it and replace it with something else ever few weeks but the core remains the same.
I've never used Safari (only the desktop version) but I have no complaints with how fast IE9 renders or how it shows on the screen.
The only audio issue is with the extra "enhancement" HTC added which makes a weird popping noise between tracks. I've tested this after updating to 8107 but can't hear it anymore. Can anyone else confirm this is fixed?
