The instinct was fine for my fingers..but was very limited and I missed WM. So I bought the Diamond 3 mo. after working out a deal with sprint to exchange my Instinct without seeing one in person. Found it to be very small, remember my snausages and I had a hard time with the onscreen keyboard. Other than the size, the keyboard and the screen size I like the Diamond...lol. The Pro2 solves all of those things, and is really what I have been looking for.

As far as cost, I have been trying to decide whether I want to pay full price or sign a new 2 year contract (SPRINT) and get a discount. I am leaning toward buying the phone at full price. It can't be more than a couple of hundred to buy it outright and I will not be locked into a contract when my current one expires. So if a phone I want comes out on another provider (though I do like sprint) I will be able to get what ever I want.

Since other are ranting....here is mine.
If you are eligible for a 2 year upgrade, don't you usually save $150 plus any additional rebates they offer. At that point it usually comes out to more then a $150 savings. Then if you wanted to cancel your line before your contract is over, isn't it $150 or so. Seems to me it makes more sense to get the rebates and pay the cancelation fee later on if you feel the need to jump to another carrier......
