All the customizations you run on your phone are only to make your tp2 run as easily as a droid. Besides slingbox, you still havent given me 1 thing winmo has better. I promise if you had an hd2 and a supersonic, after 1 week you would use your supersonic more readily, i'm 100% positive.

These people just don't get it. DUDE above said we couldn't multitask or we need software on our phones to hook it to a PC or we can't just put a SD card in our phones or another, thaats just crazy talk. That's just ignorant... I made a video of my tp2 vs the nexus on Pandora and its a joke how much better androids is... Ill post a link soon.....

excuse the vulgarness...LOL. this is just one example. Day to day usage and apps, winmo/tp2 just cannot compete with android/nexus/Droid/any android phone.

This ones the Facebook app. Look how crappy it is on the tp2. Can't even switch next pic... now these bids are both on wifi. The phones that is..

WINMO needs a change. AND untill that happens count me out. Still I don't see these funcionalities everyone speaks of winmo being able to do more. I bet by the time you open up a browser on the tp2 I'd already have the page loaded on my nexus....

And I never once have used word or excel or any of that and I bet (most) people with a tp2 have either.......

I never thought I would be able to type faster on screen than a hardware keyboard but its true.

Its because there ARE none lol.. and anyone realistic about it knows this. I have 2 phones side by side all day everyday and see first hand EVERYDAY how slow winmo is compared to my iphone and my girls droid. I had nothing but good to say about winmo and ive been dedicated to it but im not going to stick with the old when there are better options available.

There ar eplenty of things the Touch Pro 2 does that the iPhone doesn't. Tethering, Slingbox, and multitasking come to mind. I know, I know, you don't care about it so therefore it doesn't exist in your mind. Right...

Your're wrong man. Sling Player does NOT work on the iPhone. It works over WiFi only, not over 3G. So do your homework before you post and you'll see who really failed here, lol.

And by the way- the iPhone does none of that stuff unless you jailbreak it. WinMo does it all out of the box.

First of all who said it had to be 3G... I said it works! For one its choppy as hell over 3G anyways, but again I dont use it like the majority of people dont so its not a good measuring stick anyways. And youre right about the jailbreaking part, kinda like iphone is faster than winmo out of the box WITHOUT all of the tweaks and rom flashes, has multi-touch and is more responsive. Also has tons more apps, better gameplay, rotate is 10 times faster with the accelerometer. Oh and you dont have to jailbreak to multitask anymore... there's an app for that... it's called backgrounder.

Wrong. Sling Player is not choppy over 3G. Maybe on Sprint's crappy 3G wherever you live, but around here it's fine on both Sprint and AT&T (the only 2 networks I've used it on).

And you need it to work on 3G because that is the whole point of the add and the device- to watch your tv on your phone over the net.

And no, WinMo is not slow out of the box, lolo. Get your facts straight. WinMo is slow after HTC and Sprint get done hacking up up and loading it full of bloateware. All of the tweaks we do to WinMo are just to put WinMo back to it's "out of the box" condition (before HTC and Sprint hacked it up).
