As a dev phone it would have the HTC specs, not the tmobile specs..
Also, it has more rom:

As far as more ram, the processes are limited to 16M anyway; that doesn't
prevent you from writing and testing apps in limited memory setups. ("You

30, because sometimes you drive in neighborhoods and the speed limit is
25"..)
