Those faster processor phones don't have one.

So WHY NOT spend time developing for the TP2? It's the best phone out there with a hardware keyboard. And the processor is not at all slow, it's just not as fast as the latest phones.

If you don't care about the hardware keyboard, then I'd say go ahead and switch phones - go for the best phone that meets your needs. But for those of us who don't want to give up the hardware keyboard they will hopefully keep developing this port until it has all features working or a better phone comes out that already has everything the TP2 has and more.
No doubt.. That's my biggest hold out.. There's no nice Android phone with a decent keyboard. I fell in love with the TP2 keyboard. The Moto Droid keyboard is horrible!! It was worse than the Mogul I had in 2007.

HTC needs to bust out with an EVO that has the keyboard from their TP2. Now that's a phone!

Damn you Apple and starting this onscreen keyboard garbage! I HATE ONSCREEN KEYBOARDS! I don't care if it's big... I even hate the one on the ipad, so don't say "well..the EVO screen is bigger, so it is easy to type on". Nope. There's no physical buttons to feel.
