I love the hd2 as well but make the jump at least for a few days...for a full wp7 experience
True, but with loading side apps using the Market Place won't really be fully necessary, kind of like installing CABS or APKs. And side loading is sure to be around for everyone very soon now that they almost have full root access.

I'll probably get a used HD7 in early 20100 for a decent price anyways.

I don't understand what you're implying that the HD2 can't do "4 touch points" it's just drivers built on a capacitive screen right? The HD7 doesn't have some new screen technology the HD2 doesn't have does it?

software developers aren't going to upgrade their stuff to WP7, they are leaving WM6.x FOR WP7 and iOS because you can actually make money on those apps, unlike the no money to be made on WM6.x
