Agree with all your observations, and applaud your loyalty to Sprint.

EDIT: Of course T-Mobile is a GSM carrier, but HTC phones always support CDMA soon thereafter.
For me, there's pretty much no leaving Sprint, as I simply cannot get a better deal on any other carrier: 2 lines, unlimited data, 500 minutes apiece, no texts, evenings & weekends at 7pm for $65/month(SERO) after taxes ... Hmmm ... wait I think that can be improved!
Yes, the HD2 is incredible, and I'm sitting by watching all the attention the TP2 is getting, thinking to myself: "Is the TP2 that much better than the TP1???"
I'm waiting for it to drop on Sprint as well. And yeah, FM radio better be available one way or another.
