BACK to the ORIGINAL Touch, after 3 weeks of hell with the Pro

All I can say, is the Touch is much more solid, and reliable, from a HARDWARE stand-point. The software has some issues too, but that can be taken care of fairly easily.

I just needed a phone that wouldn't QUIT charging while plugged in, just because I am on a phone call.

I returned my phone back to Best Buy, because of the following problems:
-Screen hardly usable around the edges
-Overall poor construction (creaks/pops/crooked surfaces/etc)
-Earpiece was VERY blurry/cracklily
-Speakerphone is about half the volume as the Touch
-Phone gets scalding-hot
-Phone stops charging when it gets hot, which is quite often. I got off a 1.5 hour call, and my battery had drained from 100% to 20%. Pretty crappy.

So now I am back to my rock-solid Touch. Maybe someday HTC will make the Pro, or another phone just like it that has these problems worked out.
