Re: is tmobile out of their mind?

I just came back from tmobile checking out the tp2. I have to say it is pretty nice and feels really solid. This phone is much better built than the tp 1. I tried everything it can do and I can say that it is pretty much the exact same thing as the tp1 in my opinion but the screen really makes you want it.

I am not saying that it does not have any upgrades to it but I can say it doesn't have anything above and beyond the tp1. I snapped some pics and they were nice and clear. I used the opera browser and was a little let down. The touch screen does not react too good using it. I tried clicking links and I would have to do it two to three times to get it to do what I wanted. I did load opera mini and it worked flawlessly but to navigate your bookmarks you have to use the keyboard. The zoom slider in my opinion is not the greatest and works when it wants to. I wish they kept the scroll wheel or onscreen zoom like the omnia.

I would get it just for the screen and the great build quality myself, but that's just me. I don't know about the 350 price tag though. Especially since it's been years and years since tmobile had a htc windows smartphone. The rep told me tmobile is putting all it's money into the My touch 3g and not really focusing on the new tp 2.

I went to sprint too and they say that they are preparing for their launch in the beginning of september but could not confirm a date. They kept telling me to wait for the tp 2. Theirs will not be blotted like tmobile and cingulars version.
