Also consider the way AT&T's network works, you can use DATA + Voice at the same time. It's not just a sales gimmick.

On the other hand the CDMA/GSM TP2 is hardware compatible and really is a world phone. You could unlock it and take advantage of any other carrier's network (except Boost Mobile/Sprint's own iDen ofc).

Sprint Touch Pro 2 cellular compatability;

Cellular-Networks: CDMA800, CDMA1900
Cellular;Data+Links: cdmaOne, CDMA2000 1xRTT, CDMA2000 1xEV-DO Rel. 0, CDMA2000 1xEV-DO Rev A
Secondary:Cellular;Networks: GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS900, UMTS2100
Secondary_Cellular;Data_Links: CSD, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA

for the bolded every single gsm company with 3g can do this...including t mobile...its not something the iphone invented its been here for a few years now...and personally while using it, it isn't really all that applicable. Its nice to have, but not used often and again att advertising

as far as having both or all three, yeah I did. I was bored with the iphone, opened a thread here in the iphone forum about how bored I was with the iphone after the jailbreak then I realized data recovery/retrieval from national research database sucks! And finally, the last revolting thing about the iphone was even with the jailbreak, I was still restricted in what I could do. And that just isn't productive.

HTC does only run at 528 mhz, but I won't lie. I enjoy I balance but I would love my media component and gaming component too. Just like everyone else. But thinking of the amount of time I play games on my device, perhaps a game of xtract or a game of pangya or even physics deluxe. It just isn't often that I play the games. But I can see them as a jump for application performance and overall speed of device. All in all, it is based on your own preferences.

I used all three, came back to touch pro 2 every single time. But its up to the individual user. Though in my eyes android is useless without htc sense =3
