I have both a tp2 and the sprint htc hero.

I can say that android is really nice and it is just built right. They did put some thought on how the UI worked. I should probably say HTC due to sense really making android shine. I think android is very fluid with very few hiccups. The phone rarely needs to be reset. It is also easier to get things done on the hero vs the tp2. The market is awesome and you don't have to be wired to a computer or looking all over threads to find software to make things work. It just works.

The tp2 I have had for a few days and it seems to be pretty well built and the OS, well we know how Windows Mobile can be. I can say that the TP2 is a overall better phone due to the keyboard and the bigger screen. The samsung moment also has a keyboard but the phone just felt cheap to me. I am not a fan of opera after using androids browser. It seems clunky and slow to me. Comparing the two OS, I would say they each have there strong point and it's hard to say one is better than the other. Touchflo is getting old and needs an update. I know there are roms to get the most out of the software, but they are buggy right now.

Since the tp2 is now in stores, I would go and try out both android phones and the tp2 side by side. My comparison on phones is usually form factor, software and build quality.

Regarding the statement above about battery life on the hero. The tp2 last just a little longer than the hero. I have had the hero since oct 9th and have had no problems except a issue with yahoo mail but that was fixed after my phone was replaced.
