Here are the summary of criple features that verizon did:
1) less memory: save equipment cost
2) no TF3D
3) disable GPS: to make more monthly charge on their GPS
4) No Youtube: force customers to use their content and to make more money on their content
5) More money: $50 more
6) no headphone
7) no screen protector
no Hoster
9) retarded keyboard layout
10) required to pay $30 data option for all smart/pda phones.
This is an example of corporate greed. verzion tried to milk more money from their customers who fall into their ad of "The Network". they treat their customers like dummy, again.
regular customer won't know these facts. only educated users are aware of this who can use ebay 30% cashback and buy sprint Pro to run on verizon network.

While I can give you the fact that the device lacks most of the accessories and has some apparently displaced memory, IT'S NOT THAT BAD.
I'm so sick of all the Sprint fanboys on here and it's utterly
ing. I have had Sprint for 4+ years, dealt with ****ty customer service, billing system nightmares, lies, customer services and telesales reps in India and broken MMS on my smartphones. I still have Sprint to this day, but I cannot begin to tell you how much better the overall atmosphere is when dealing VZW.
When I call them, things get done. A person, who 9 times out of 10 works directly for the company (they have outsourced reps, but they're all American and they're pretty few and far between), answers my phone and sounds thoroughly happy to serve me. I have never in four years gotten that from Sprint. Ever. I have been lied to and nearly ****ed out of $100 because a telesales rep didn't let me know that my Fair and Flexible plan made me inelgibile for the MIR. Thanks, guys. Really.
Maybe VZW costs a little more, but I have no complaints AT ALL about their service. I know every company has it's moments when it comes to bad experiences, but sadly, it seems to be a common occurance with Sprint.
As far as the device goes:
IT HAS TOUCHFLO 3D. For the love of God, can we please put that one to rest? IT DOES NOT LAG, either. I have extensively used both the VZW and Sprint Touch Pro. They're both slow because they're both WM6.1 PDAs with broken-*** HTC graphics. Oh no, the YouTube app wasn't preinstalled. 5 minutes on Google and I was up and running. The gripes about the keyboard layout are a ****ing joke. If you can't get used to it in 5 minutes like I did, you're lacking some serious mental capacity. It's not rocket science, it's a keyboard. Get used to it. I'm let down about the headphones and screen protector, but the holster is a piece of ****, and even the Sprint guys can attest to that one.
I'm not a complete VZW fanboi and I still happily pay my Sprint bill every month, but I think there are FAR too many highly uneducated people on here unfairly bashing VZW and their Touch Pro. If you don't like it, fine. No one is making you switch to VZW or get their device. Keep your useless opinions to yourself.
