There is so much more activity in the touchpro forums, why? because many people see the keyboard as a must have, I know I do. I have both a diamond and a pro and when it comes to sending long emails or anything having to do with a lot of typing an on screen keyboard just aint gonna cut it. My diamond is my weekend phone and my touch pro is the work horse during the week.

Yeah this pretty much sums it up so at least you can say they've somewhat been paying attention.

I agree with u....they listed the Diamond on their EOL list and a source tells me HTC sent out their last inventory of Diamonds already for sprint...Their ganna have to eventually replace it with a similar phone as a replacement for a defective one, and I highly doubt it will be the TP2,...many would leave to other carriers if the diamond2 wasn't an option for the many many diamond user's sprint already has....So agree'd, I will be calling sprint in the fall to complain about my defective diamond *cough* *cough* to get it replaced with the TD2

I'm seriously thinking about living Sprint for AT & T if than do not get the diamond2 by the Fall. AT & T will have the diamond2 this summer.

They probably think that their entry in the touch-only segment is the Instinct (and its successors).

Sprint clearly thinks the Instinct is something special, worthy of forcing all Instinct customers to their Simply Extravagant Plans, whereas all I see in the Instinct is yet another touch screen featurephone like the FIVE that Verizon has (e.g. Voyager, Dare, Glyde, Versa, Krave) that VZW allows on $15/mo data options.

Sprint won't even offer the Omnia...

Sprint seems to be all about REDUCING the number of choices... reducing plan choices, reducing phone choices... sad really...

i cant bit my lip on this one....

if uve ever worked a cell store you'd know the majority of customers r confused by complex plans that dont include this or that and all these add on features...

sprint has made it simple and less expensive. the same plan i have would cost me $40 bucks more then it does now...not to mention how verizons TP was tricked outwith less equipment but is still more expensive. WTF?

and i hear ya on how sprint isnt planning on offering the D2....and they arent...look they are a business here are some facts....

the TP is sold 15,000 a week compared to a measly 3,000 diamonds...why would sprint invest all their money in a phone that theyre going to lose on....face it were the minority here.

oh yes and i am one that is disappointed about the D2 not coming to sprint. but i do appreciate the thing i have and the TP2 as well as the Pre are two phones i would be satisfied with. :):headbang:

seriously?

AT&T? you sould leave sprint just to get a different phone that even your current phone would beat loading up espn.com...

i could understand leaving sprint for verizon they are at least compareable....but at&t...lol...just a thought... the iphone might b cool but it sure as hell isnt fast enough for me.
