one minor flaw of tp2

i wish they made the screen wider...notice that the iphone screen is a little shorter but wider which makes typing on the on screen keyboard easier and more accurate...the tp2 on screen keyboard although nice could use jus a few more millimeters between the letters.

try touchpal.... it automatically makes up for accidental key presses and makes typing with the sip much easier and faster

TouchPal is a great on screen keyboard, but you don't care much for one of the best hardware keyboards available? Typing is so smooth and easy on it

I agree about the iphone/touch screen size, I have a 16 gig 2nd gen touch & I do prefer the shape of that screen to my TP2. It is not a big difference, but i do notice it.

As far as to using TouchPal on-screen KB, I agree 100%. I use TP 3.5 (I do not like 4.0 at all) & I never use the hardware KB (I don't think I've used it once). I can type INSANELY fast using TP in portrait mode using T+ (their version of T-9 which is amazing). I can type way faster that way than almost anybody can with a hardware KB (I don't care how good it is)

hey guys,

dont get me wrong..i love the hardware keyboard on the tp2 but sometimes i just wanna use the on screen if i have something short to write out but im guessing the hd2 will fix these problems

Lol, HD2 will fix a lot of problems - many of which aren't apparent to us (such as the problem that 3.6" isn't big enough for a screen, or 1/2 a GB of CPU isn't enough when you can have 1GB)
