Touch Pro? Nah. I'll stick with my Mogul.

[moovius]

Over the past few weeks I have been contemplating the idea of upgrading to the Touch Pro (right now it would cost me $199 and not alter my sero plan).

It's a pretty slick looking phone compared to the Mogul:

• More memory
• Bigger and higher res screen
• Faster interface (faster processor I assume)
• Better camera
• Bigger keyboard
• etc...

But then I go to the forums to do some research and hear negative feedback about:

• Battery life is very short (most former mogul owners notice it)
• Frequent reports of overheating
• Keyboard doesn't have the same tactile feel (many dislike it)
• etc...

Believe me, I am sick of the slow interface and memory issues with the Mogul. I've had mine for 1.5 years now and I run DCD's 3.2.6 rom (which is one of the fastest roms I've ever used on this phone). My phone still runs like Vista on a 486 computer. But it already has gps, Evdo Rev A, a little over 4 hours of talk-time battery life, wifi, and all those things that I truly need.

How many of you mogul owners have researched the Touch Pro and decided to hold off on the upgrade? Are you hoping (like me) that HTC will come out with an improvement on the TP in the latter part of the year (a guy can dream can't he?).

I'm just curious.

EDIT:

Call me Judas! I just upgraded to the Sprint Touch Pro (on a whim).

I plan on posting a full comparison review between the mogul and the TP in the near future. I will put the link up here.

Yeah... I'm over the mogul now. I've moved on after only 4 days with the TP.
