Re: Thinking of jumping to the HD2

I live in SA, Tx. I got the HD2 last Saturday (for free from T-Mobile) and have been testing the speeds. @ home (NW side of SA) The HD2 on Tmobile beat the pants off of my TP2 on Verizon! Mobilespeedtest.com rated the HD2 at 1200+ for the 1MB DL and the TP2 at only 700. (same results for the lower DLs too)

At work, (SE side of SA) the HD2 gets anywhere from 1-3 bars of Edge signal to 1-2 bars of 3G indoors, but my TP2 gets 2-3 bars of 3G everywhere indoors.

I LOVE the HD2, and am thinking about paying the ETF and keeping the HD2 for a 3rd party GPS device (CoPilot 8 and OnCourse Navigator 8 ) and for WiFi use since Draft-N can be "unlocked".

Call quality on the TP2 is great and the physical keyboard and the speaker phone on the TP2 are the BEST I have EVER on a phone or PDA device. I will continue to use the TP2 as my primary device but I really am struggling about what to with the HD2! (Huge Screen, Screaming Processor and Draft-N for WiFi)
