It runs as choppy as our Pro 1. Only reason it feels faster is because the interface TF3d 2 has been optimized. Other than that...... 3d accelaration is nill.

That's what I was afraid of. I have no need of TF2D, 3D, 3D2, or any variant. I like the standard WinMo (5.0-6.1) Today screen. When I turn it off/cook it out with a custom ROM - The perceived performance benefits will vanish.
(Even though it *should* be faster because the standard Today screen is much less graphically complex and much less processor intensive than TF3D, plus TF3D sucks up a fair chunk of RAM.)
Damn it HTC! Why do you make such nice phones and then cripple them with a lack of drivers?
I'll still get the TP2 for its bigger screen (hooray death of the useless d-pad, which HTC slowly made less and less usable), much more usable keyboard, and tilt feature. I was going to say that the 3.5mm jack was nice, but I have an HTC remote on the way that plugs into the USB port, has a long cord, and ends in a small remote with a mic, call send & end buttons, track next/prev (also ff/rewind), volume up/down buttons, and as the icing on the cake, it has a plug for any 3.5mm headphones you want to use. Oh yes, and it has a clothes clip. This remote will let me do calls and music (and voice control too) from one unit, so in my mind it's much better than a separate 3.5mm jack that only does audio out.
