I've actually been seeing more and more and more people get the vogue.
Well regular users. Not sure how many are actually unlocking/flashing the phone.
I still wish I had my vogue as it was a really good phone except for the fact that I got tired of texting on it.
I don't really think it will die off for the average user.
but for the power user it is getting outdated.
I mean every developer has done what they could to the phone,
and it's modded like no other now.

Here are my perfect specs for the touch2...
cdma and gsm versions with the same hardware (I'm on alltel, go figure)
wifi
3" - 3.2" 480x800 (I'm getting tired of seeing these 4" screens, I think the overall size of the omnia is about perfect)
snapdragon (I noticed the diamond was noticeably slow with some vga games)
3mp - 5mp camera with autofocus and led (the omnia really jumped my expectations for cell cameras)
extusb (the omnia had the standard samsung proprietary connector)
3.5mm headphone jack
attached stylus (the omnia had one but it was separate)
all day battery (the omnia would commonly be dead before I got home from work, the touch and diamond have great battery life)
buttons (power on the top, volume on left-top, camera on right-bottom, two small buttons on the front-top, and a real 5-way on front-bottom, no soft-buttons all hard clicky buttons)
resistive screen (I don't care how cool multitouch is windows mobile just isn't finger-friendly enough, if we could get away from little checkboxes and bars then capacitive and no stylus would work better)
bluetooth
microsdhc
no hardware keyboard (that's what makes it a "touch")
I think that's about it. I would buy that phone in a heartbeat. When you look at it, most of what I want is on the touch that we already love. It just needs a proper refresh. Those weren't in order of importance, but when I thought about them.
To me, one of the biggest things that sets the touch apart from the new phones is the real 5-way buttons. That is something that phones seem to be loosing, and it's a real turn-off. Of course, I just bought the msi bgp100 (bluetooth gamepad for cellphones), so it may not be that big of a deal. I'd much rather be able to hold the phone, sideways, in my hands and play, though.

I agree with alot of the items you chose here.
But..I personally love keyboards(ones that aren't a major fail by HTC.)
The 5way d-pad was really nice when it came to games, but now I have a gsensor that does all that for me with a tilt of the phone, so I don't mind that it's not on most of the phones.
I kind of like the bigger screens also. but the novelty might wear off after a while, and I definitely wouldn't like screens much bigger than that on my phone.

I recommend waiting till WM7 gets launched.
Pointless to buy a phone that won't have the hardware necessary to take full advantage of the new OS.
