I did the unspeakable and wandered into a VZW store today and looked at the incredible. I rather like it, it's fast. I will miss winmo if I do switch to the evo though.

Advantages to the incredible:
-Fast
-Beautiful screen
-Touch is more responsive, but capacitive is going to take some getting used to when i have become so adept with resistive screens
-Android isn't bad
-Thin and light

Cons:
-Screen rotation really slow? I went to go to landscape to try the keyboard and it took like 2-3 seconds to switch
-No more winmo I need an OBD datalogging app, maybe I will need to create one
-Concerned about battery life

So I am kinda torn, I am so unbelievably sick of the TP 2's slowness for average tasks, but I don't want to give up the flexibility of winmo. I will miss easy wifi tethering, I will miss the hardware keyboard. I hope the speaker isn't crappy...

Probably never going to buy an on-contract phone again as I feel like I made a major mistake when I went to Best Buy first thing in the morning to get my Touch Pro almost two years ago now.
Same problem here, Have the TP2 and just bought the Incredible. Need to see what the fuss is about. So far I have found more shortfalls than gains but still like the whole layout and setup. I will give it a few weeks and decide if I will keep it.
