Sprint touch pro 2 unboxing - Page 2

I see a pattern here. The Mogul came with a decent faux leather case with magnetic snap on. The Diamond came with crappy velcrow case. Touch Pro2 comes with nothing.

Do you think that that back helps keep the phone cooler? Or just the speaker sound?

It seems odd that if the holes are necessary to keep the phone cool, that Sprint would be the only carrier to put them there.

The original TP2 has a speaker grill looking back the entire length of the phone, Verizon version does too I think. I thought that was strange since the two speakers used for "conference calling" are both at the top of the phone...
Maybe it is suppose to help with cooling... We'll see I guess

so let me get this straight... no case, ugly battery cover, outragous price, and still lags on a supposed optimized code? does Sprint WANT us to buy a Hero? cuz it worked on me... (EDIT: scratch the lag ATM, it seemed a lot better on the Phonedog unboxing)

Regardless of that lag I agree, that hero and its price tag are starting to look much better for me.

are you serious sprint cheap *** expect people to shell out alot of money and get nothing to really sell the device. I'm not sure if its just me or what but the last time i check its almost standard that every smartphone has a carrying case and sd card as well as headset. I think sprint is slacking off cause people now days expect these things in the box to come standard; thinking about the price tag of the phone i think it should come included. Hopefully within a year or so they have them in the box but personally i thnk sprint getting on the cheap side with stuff.

So let me get this straight... $350 AFTER a mail-in rebate, AND I don't get all the usual extras that came with the Mogul or Touch Pro? Wow. Not a good way to entice new users/buyers there Sprint... good call... not.

That said, I personally care about one thing after seeing the video... did they fix the screen wobble issue? If so, I'll buy it at full price in a heartbeat, because my TP has irritated the crap out of me for a year because of the lack of durability, and the larger screen size is an added bonus for me.

yo i think sprint cheap asses didnt give the other stuff cause they probly assume everybody with the touch pro going to buy the touch pro 2 and they probly dint feel like shelling more money on the stuff alot of people have double of. But then again is isnt fair to people who didnt have the touch pro of had a phone that works with mini usb ports cause then they have to spend money to buy a headset and stuff like that.
