HD2 question about general usage.

[flipper2008]

Thanks for that info. Noticable in pockets.. Let me ask a different way. I'm muscular and if I have jeans or dockers, would it fit in the front pockets and be able to sit down without it breaking (havent had one in my hand yet). I'm just afraid if i get this, then tmobile will get a better android phone.

This is the problem, my company has Tmobile, i need to get a phone that is available for corporate accounts, nexus 1 is not since i need to get it with a contract and can't transfer contract to our corp account (or so they say). My company will pay for the phone so i must stick with Tmobile. I have a TON of apps for WM and good software makes a 'good' phone even better. I almost got the cliq but i didnt want such a small screen resolution 320x480 i think.

You also said battery life wasnt great... With my touch pro WITHOUT ANY phone calls and just minimized use, i would get barely 7-8 hours of use (push email though all the time) which killed the battery..

You don't want to put this phone in your jeans' pockets, just jacket or shirt pocket.
Or keep, it in a bag. I got a new messenger bag mostly for this phone and accessories, just like a women's purse.

For battery I bought a Tekkeon recharger which I also carry in the bag. I can go out for a whole day like I did today, with camera on for most of the time, internet and FM radio, and still have enough juice.

I disagree completely. It fits very nicely in just about every pair of jeans except maybe if you've got ultra-tight girl jeans. I actually find the HD2 to be more pocketable than my Diamond because it's so thin.. the Diamond would flip sideways and was just plain fat compared to this, the HD2 works much better.

Yes it does fit, but when you sit down you're going to break it. Sooner or later. Not to mention droping the keys or some coins in the same pocket.

I've been sitting down with it in my pocket for the last few days, hasn't broken yet Doubt it's ever going to do so either by just sitting down.

I don't put keys etc in the same pocket with my phone ever, but that applies to any phone.
