This by far the best phone I've had in a while. I was an Original Sanyo user (from way back in the day) then I moved onto the ppc 6700, then the touch, then made the mistake of getting the Instinct (after having a PDA a "smart-phone" doesn't cut it)and luckily was taken care of by Sprint and got a deal on the Touch Pro!

I have not had any issues that most people have had. My Manufacturing date says 10/26/08 so it is not the batch that early Best Buy people received. My phone only gets hot while charging but NEVER in usage. The battery life has been descent for me better than my 6700 so I cant complain. I use it mostly during my hour lunch break and my commute to work and home and it is at 2 bars by the time I get home at 6pm (off the charge at 6 am). The screen has been pretty snappy for me. So far no lag issues as I have had with the Touch. I immediately the first day I received it downloaded my contacts, added S2u2 VGA, registry hack to stop "sent text message" alert pop up, and Opera browser hack to stop the mobile page only sites and added flash 3.1 to have flash work with Opera (works good but not as crisp and smooth as Skyfire). So far I have had no issues it has not had typical bad habits that my other winmo's have had. I LOVE the option between on screen and hardware keyboard, for emails I use the Hardware keyboard and for Quick texts i use the on-screen which seems to work great with t9. So bottom line is I love it no complaints ESPECIALLY AFTER COMING FROM THE INSTINCT!!! SO HOW CAN I POSSIBLY COMPLAIN LOL!!!
