Re: First time TP2 user! just bought one for $40

thanks for the battery tip... $30 for two batts and a charger isnt bad, not for 1900mah cells anyway.

ive been playing with the phone the whole time. even pretty girls didnt distract me today, i was in the phone zone.

after playing around, i am pretty much wowed by this phone. i agree, the ui speed with sense isnt a speed demon, but its still about the same speed as my treo pro with a fast rom on it so it doesnt bother me much. the biggest problems come when i hit wrong buttons and it takes a second for that to register, so it pops up weird shit when i dont expect. i just need to learn how to hold this thing, and how to navigate it better... ill get it

this phone does have a chunk missing from a corner... so it was clearly dropped. i dont think the ebay ad stated that, because you can see the plastic is broken and actually with indentations. it looks like it hit concrete from about 10ft. all seems great though, the phone is still very tightly constructed, no loose hinges or anything and all the buttons work fine. i got a great deal on this imo, at least for me as a construction worker this used scuffed up phone is perfect.

i DID get the internet working. i had to install a cab file i found using google... it installed the PRL updater and the profile updater. i dont know why those arent in the rom, because my internet simply wouldnt work until i ran those programs.

ive noticed this phone is geared toward streaming media, and it has tv out!! thats a whole other day of playin around right there boy.....
