Re: help me choose a new phone...

The best current kb phone is Epic 4g!

Best buy is right now giving them out free with 2 year contract:

Samsung - Epic 4G Mobile Phone (Sprint) - SPHD700BKS

But to better answer your question, can you tell us what you use your phone for? and whats important to you?

Re: help me choose a new phone...

The Moto Droid 3 looks like it may not be bad. The top one depends on opinion. The biggest thing is which OS will you like more and the best way is to play with it yourself. Does the screen still work okay on your phone? It may be worth it if so to run Android on your TP2 to see if you would like it.

The 3d is the least important feature of the Evo3d..the most important being more energy efficient CPU, faster cpu, dual core, better gpu, better screen, more ram..and I can go on...

Re: help me choose a new phone...

The EVO is better than that plasticky epic gTen and Austin are pushing here. LOL.

Congrats on YOUR new phone bro... It's what YOU chose because that's what YOU want.
Enjoy.

To be fair..he clearly asked for a phone with a keyboard....so I suggested based on what he stated as a need...since he chose the EVO I and Austin offered a better alternative of the same form factor...and explaiend to him why it would be a better option..its his choice in the end..we can;t force him to buy phone X or Y...but this is a tech forum where we exchange information to make the best decision...I do not see a need to get personal about these things..

And FYI, what does having plasticy have to do with anything? The Epic has minimum amount of extra materials to help make it lighter..where as if you open up the Evo is loaded with useless plastic...(which prob could have been used to fit a 2x bigger battery if they wanted to >.>)
