Current TP2 owners

To those who currently still use their TP2 but love to switch over to the EVO, Epic and future Windows 7 phones but just refuse to fork over the rediculous $10.00 added "surcharge" for the EVO and Epic and on top of that fiscally restructioning their current plan....will you stick it out as long as your TP2 is still working or what is your next move? I currently have the Fair and Flexible plan $40.00 plus unlimitted data and do not see why I have to change my plan...I have unlimitted data. Is it just like Sprint wants more money and eventually make the "everything" plan standard?
So for me it's an additional $30.00 a month period.

Your thoughts

Re: Current TP2 owners

It is unlikely that you will either 1. be able to outlast the company providing the service to your phone or 2. Be able to resist upgrading the phone relatively regardless of the cost (especially considering you are on this forum).

But thankfully, we have a free market (for the time being) and data has a cost. If one company charges X and another charges Y...all other things being equal a client will opt to pay less for the service.

I would like to thank the hard work of NRG for keeping my good old tp2 livable.

Your thoughts

Im in the same position as you. I also have the fair and flex plan.

1000 mins
free nights and weekends
Unlimited texts, picture mail and data for 30$

Sprint can kiss my a$$ with there new phones and 80+ phone bill.

I love my TP2.

Re: Current TP2 owners

+1 for Vin's rom, switched from NRG to Vin, my phone never freezes, although I know it's the 2.0 that was causing all the issues I had.

Re: Current TP2 owners

I just switched from the tp2 to an Evo and I'm considerably impressed. I've been using my tp2 again recently because I'll be going out of the country and need a world phone, but I have to say it's like going from HD back to standard definition. I'd have to say the biggest surprise was how quick I got accustomed to the larger screen, and how much I like it. It's like having a Ferrari, it seems absolutely ridiculous and impractical unless your the one driving it lol. The app market is also a lot better than I thought it would be. The only complaint I really have so far is battery life, and the problems I had were due to a bad rom. I fully expected to try out the Evo for a week or two and end up taking it back in favor of my trusty tp2, but now, I love it. And that's saying a lot becuase I didn't think there would ever be anything to make me part with my SERO 500 plan. Now I'm tempted to say the $20/month sero premium and 4G upgrade fee is almost worth it. I mean, it does include free mobile to mobile, sprint navigation and I get 4G in a lot of Columbus. The only real reason I've kept my tp2 around for is traveling, since I unlocked it and can get local gsm sim cards. All in all, if you can - I recommend upgrading
