[SprintTouch08]

honestly whos surprised? people are never happy with what they have. For myself i find the video just fine, this isnt high-res/high-def like your home system- its on the go viewing, its simply entertainment no matter how much people want to make it sound like life or death here. The greatest irony there is people complain about video drivers yet go and watch Sprint TV which is HORRIBLE quality IMO, and youre worried about the at least decent quality of your side-loaded movies? *head scratcher*

i think the more sad part is people are more up in arms about the drivers which arent THAT horrible, instead of the poor quality control HTC is exhibiting on these phones causing people to swap them 2,3,4,5 times. The polls dont lie, the average person is between 2 and 3 Pros. Priority should be getting a halfway decently built phone, then worry about nit picking a driver, which in the end isnt all that "horrible." This isnt an iphone its not a gaming device nor a media centric device like the iphone is, its market to business people and WM had NEVER been known to be media-centric no matter what ad slogans you want to do one line quotes from HTC about media. We all knew this buying the device and that it wasnt an iphone. My other theory is if you packed all the OS power into an iphone the video would take a serious hit from cpu load, more Ram being used, and other factors. So there is NO perfect device that will do it all perfectly. Taking nuances from the iphone is great to advance our platform, but the envy has to stop already we wont have such a powerful media device anytime soon because the focus of WM is business, and if yo want media first then WM isnt for you. There hasnt been a device yet that does flawless video and is a good business device, theres only so much they can pack in with current technology for now at least.

i just think people are being HIGHLY unrealistic here. would i love more performance for free? sure. But honestly will it happen? probably not from past experiences, and im not going to get all bent out of shape about it- im going to enjoy what i have for what it can do which is impressive how far its come in such a short time
