Verizon - HTC Touch Pro comparisons\diff

This Thread is intended for those who have the HTC Touch Pro from Verizon (XV6850) and want to discuss the differences with this device vs the other Sprint HTC Touch Pro. Since I have the device I am more than willing to share with anyone about questions about device specs, roms, included apps, what works, what is missing, etc.

My initial thoughts... I just got mine yesterday and really like the devices. It is very finger print prone!!! The case it self is very slippery in the hand, so I can't wait for Seido to get the accessories for this device! Video is great, but the battery life is greatly effected by the brighter screen. It is slightly different than the Sprint version by means of the buttons and casing. I have looked at a lot of webs sites including HTC, and the HTC touch pro is mis-represented in terms of the looks of the device. For example if you go to HTC web site there is nothing about the ATT Fuze, but I swear this is more like the fuze than the real HTC Touch Pro they mention on the HTC web site ( I am going to call them next week to see if I can get a new back cover (if it will fit). The difference is the back cover of the HTC Poo is old school as opposed to the diamond facing. It also does not have the forward facing camera. I also tried a few hacks on the GPS enabling such a nue, but no luck yet. (let me know when it is a cab).
It was released on November 24th. I check the day before at 10:30 pm but it was not listed then when I checked at 7 am the next day it was listed under the PDA phones. They have released the Storm, so they spent no time advertizing this device. I went to 3 different verizon stores and none of them even knew of the device or know anything about it. I got mine through a 30 day device exchange. I called in on monday and it came in by wednesday at 11 am.
