Re: Verizon HTC TOUCH PRO Information

Yes - the other carrier's version of the Touch Pro have more RAM, yes they have rounded edges, some even have faux chrome edges.

But I am stuck with Verizon - I left Sprint not becase I wanted to, but becasue the wife got a job with VZW and you cant beat the Employee discount price.

So my choices are - get a Verizon Touch Pro and hope the wizards in this fourm and start cooking some ROM's to unlock the GPS and other goodies. Still be able to pay a pittance for Replacement Warranty and not have to worry too much if the device gets damaged.

Or

Pay top dollar for a unlocked Touch Pro and slap the VZW Rom on it and pray it lasts a year or so becase if it breaks.....I'm screwed.

I really dont have a choice but to get the Verizon Touch Pro and hope for the best. I hope that when the VZW TP gets unlocked and the useless VZW software gets removed there will be plenty of RAM to do what I want to do with this device......

Everything in the normal font color I'm sure from what I have read, I can do STOCK right out of the box. The things in YELLOW I either have read of issues or slight tweaking needed to perform. In RED, yeah the unlocked GPS, I would really, really like that to happen.
