All the customizations you run on your phone are only to make your tp2 run as easily as a droid. Besides slingbox, you still havent given me 1 thing winmo has better. I promise if you had an hd2 and a supersonic, after 1 week you would use your supersonic more readily, i'm 100% positive.

On the youtube- it works just fine in Skyfire for me. Set Skyfire as the default browser, and then anytime you click a youtube link you get it in Skyfire. Screw the mobile player. The mobile youtube doesn't have all the same content as the full version, so I don't want to use the mobile version at all.
By the way- you can bag on WinMo for HTC skinning it with Sense, but HTC skinned Android with sense too.
All the customizations I do just to make my phone run like an Android? LOL, man listen to yourself here...
Let me explain- Sprint (and the other carriers) along with HTC designs the ROM. Thyey take the core OS that Microsoft gives them, and they load it up with their junkware, and try to cripple things they don't want, and so on. All the customizations you speak of are just removing all that crap. The fact that I can tweak my ROM to get it how I want it just means Microsoft actually got it right. Sprint screwed it up.
Lets see- aside from Slingbox some of the things I use are Word and Excel, Skyfire, iCalendar (automatically puts all the games from your teams in your calendar), Netflix Mobile, Remote Desktop, and Microsoft MyPhone. I'm sure you can do some of these (or even all of them) on Android, but none of them will be as smooth as on Windows Mobile.
