Wow, if you're coming from the Apache, anything would be an upgrade, no offense hahah.

I used the XV6700 for almost 2 years, it was a sturdy but a brick of a phone. The software is a lot more slick now and the TP is able to handle the newer platform much better than say the 6800 did. If you're comfortable with custom ROM flashing or tweaking the stock ROM, you'll be very happy with the TP.

As for the speed, I don't really notice the horsepower of the phones when I use them, the XV6700 gave me problems, just as the 6800 gave me problems, just as the TP now can give me problems. Unfortunately I think this is mostly windows mobiles fault than anything else. Functionally the TP is light years ahead of the 6700 though and you shouldn't hesitate to upgrade.

Though if you are willing to wait, the Touch Pro 2 is going to be released later this year, at least according to rumor.
