I haven't seen people complaining about it...and just because it's the same processor and memory doesn't mean that it's not an improvement.

only true upgrades are the screen and stock 6.5

This is wrong. It doesn't even come with 6.5 stock. It's 6.1. There are several upgrades that are not here as well. The keyboard is vastly improved, the overall build quality of the device is also vastly improved, call quality is better, speakerphone is 100x clearer and is also louder, 3.5mm headphone jack, better sliding mechanism, much longer battery life, and a more responsive screen (especially on the corners).

the kb i have heard mixed reviews on. some like it better, others don't. i personally don't like it better due to the tab button.
|
This is another thing I've never seen a negative review on. Most people say that it's the best hardware keyboard they've ever seen on a mobile device, and I tend to agree with that. Not having a tab key is trivial compared to the improvements made on the ease of use.

it is a bigger phone, not as sleek as our tp1's. obviously a bigger screen means a bigger phone.
|
Not really a big deal. It's not HUGE, and for having this much screen real estate and that nice of a keyboard with tilt, I'd take the extra bulk any day.

also the tp2 does not carry a flash, another big hit for alot of people.

This is probably the only thing I agree on. Not having a flash kinda sucks. Not so much for the camera, but I liked using it as a flashlight.
IMHO, you can't even compare it to the TP1. I had so many headaches with that phone that I started to really dislike it after a few months. The battery died fairly quickly, the build quality was sub-par, and the screen was just too small to enjoy VGA. I absolutely love the TP2. I loved the TP1 for only a couple months.
