Re: droid or htc touchpro 2

I've been having the same issue. I got a Touch Pro 2 through an insurance claim, so I won't really be out that much if I went to a Droid. Many have said they like it from the early hands on reviews, but something is still in the back of my mind telling me to wait. If I do wind up purchasing the Moto Droid, I won't be using my NE2, I'll pay for it outright.

The idea that the HD2 could/should be coming to Verizon as the Passion I believe and then reading a report that it could also be a Droid device makes me want to hold off. I'd much rather have a HTC device than Motorola. The physical keyboard on the Droid is really claustrophobic (it looks worse than my original Touch Pro), so that would almost force me to use the on screen keyboard, and if that is going to be the case, I might as well get a really thin device like HD2/Passion.

I love being an early adopter of new technology, but this time around I may just sit the Moto Droid out. Then the fact that you can only install applications to the ROM of Droid 2.0 devices without ROOT makes me extremely unhappy and borderline cry out false advertising; but should Google change that and allow the installation of applications to the SD card, I'll jump ship immediately and give the Moto Droid a run for her money.

My Touch Pro 2 has been flawless so far from Verizon, and now that I've loaded Mighty Rom and have WinMo 6.5 loaded, she's a screaming device.
