i dont wanna say yes, but i do know that the touch camera app works on the mogul. i did use it but saw it didnt work so great in dark enviroments so went back.

as far as the touch pro.. for web browsing, i think for page scrolling it should be tilt the phone what ever direction you want to move seeing how we have the acceloromoter.

p.s. if there are any typos lol i did this on my mohul with size 14 font and zoom @ 50% in opera lol. those are my thoughts

NO FLASH!??????????

can anyone confirm this? the flashlight is the best part of my mogul.. which i just sold in anticipation of the TP

The GOOD thing about that video is that other than missing the scroll wheel all the issues are software related.... I mean look what has been done with the mogul, In case you forgot they were launched without touch flow and I dont know anyone with a PPC that doesnt use touchflo, free or commercial. The latest cooked ROMs even give you mapping control of the wifi switch. I cant wait to see what can be done with all that ram Im sure someone will find a way to gain control of the zoom wheel for scrolling. its just a matter of time... and I will count the days!

do you see how THICK that thing is... man...




Hold on, i'm getting a phone call....
hello???

I can definitly deal with 4GB mem on the diamond, cuz the pro is WAY HUGE for my pockets...

Now maybe if you carry a bag around or suitcase to work where you can put the pro in, thats different... for me 4Gigs is pleanty

I would say that the majority of ppc users don't use that POS program in our moguls but that is just a guess. The recessed and somewhat unresponsive screen made it very difficult for daily use.

If touchflo3d slows down the responsiveness on the touch pro by 0.01 second I will disable it.

All of my above opinions are that, "Opinions".

I don't have TouchFlo on my Mogul, and have no interest in it. I'm glad to hear that the Touch Pro can run with or without it. PPC's are a tool to me, not a toy or entertainment center, nor does "cool factor" mean diddley to me. Functionality for business, without software problems, is what matters.

Lol, thats pretty damn funny but I do understand what he is saying. The thickness is somewhat unattractive, I don't have an issue with the overall size of the mogul but when compared to the raphael its different. With the raphael being shorter and narrower with basically the same thickness, it just looks more like a brick. Like my girlfriend for example, she is 5'7" and weighs about 150lbs and fine as hell. Now if we take that same 150lbs and put it in a 5 foot frame then we might have a problem. But like I said in another post, I am buying this on day one, hopefully.
