Offered the TP2 or the Palm Pre, I chose....

I have really been disappointed with the TP out of the box. Sorry developers, but even the custom roms did not impress me.

When I heard about sprint offering a replacement with warranty I was ecstatic!!
There are two corporate sprint repair centers within 25 miles of me and both of them said all they will do for me is replace my tp with another tp, not he tp2.
After much searching however, I found that a third repair center existed near me, but it was franchise. They were amazing, they did not even plug in my tp to testing equipment. They asked me why I was there today, I explained the problems I was having with my tp and they said we can offer you a TP2, Blackberry, or a Palm Pre as a replacement. Minutes later he put in the order and it will be here on tuesday. No hassle, no 21 questions, franchise stores are MUCH more friendly than any experience I have EVER had with a corporate sprint store.

I chose the Palm Pre after doing much research. The only con I have ever heard about the Pre is that at some times it is "a bit sluggish". Thats it?! That is all people can say after nearly a year of availability! Whenever anyone asks me about my TP I tell them "when it works, it works. When I need it, it doesn't".

I would like to know in a Poll, if you were offered a replacement for the TP what would you accept?

P.s. I have owned the TP for 14 looooooooonnnngg months.
