It's a lot faster, more responsive... getting used to using the iphone screen and then going back to the tp2 it feels like I have to put extra pressure on the screen because of responsive the iphone screen is. It's LIGHTNING fast and does pretty much everything I need.

I was planning on just trying it out for 30 days just to see what its like but im keeping mine.


edit.. I posted a side by side pic but it was super huge so I took it off
Thank you. Honestly...Have the TP2. Flashed with Mighty rom. Ive had to reset about every other day. It freezes sometimes. Its almost like having a TP1. But the screen is amazing...so beautiful. I know with the TP2 i can do everything the Iphone does...but the interface on iphone is killer. Look ive had WM phones for over 8 years now. Im a PDA user for the last 15 years. So ive seen it all. And HTC has done a decent job turning WM into something useable..but im just soo disappointed in WM.

Re: getting tp2 today...thinking about iphone..whos have both?

I love my TP2, I had seen peeps with iphone.. sucks if you ask me... once you get done with the fun of the widgets.. nothing else to do with it..

I put a rom on my tp2 and have it tweaked & running smooth now... soo smooth im bored and waiting for my cook to cook something else up lol... ( missing the flashing & tweaking)

Doid to me just looks plain ugly.

Well actually you cant.. the tp2 doesnt have multi-touch...and you can take pics with the tp2 but they are putrid in comparison.. and NO one can deny that part. And I agree with you on the HTC part, if it werent for them adding touchflo/titanium 6.1 would still look exactly like the mogul. I've said it several times on here.

Doid to me just looks plain ugly.

I still never see the logic in this argument... the part in bold is EXACTLY the point im making. You have to flash and tweak the hell out of it just to get to a point where you're actually satisfied with it. With droid and the iphone you dont NEED to do that because they're faster and more stable right from the time you take them out of the plastic. And what's the difference with once you get used to the newness of the tp2? That's exactly the reason I got an iphone to begin with because I got bored with constantly having to flash and tweak my tp2... editing registries and all that bs.

IMO it's not a luxury for me, it's more of a hassle since I shouldnt have to do it just to have a satisfactory phone when I buy it. What else is there to do with the tp2? I mean, I can do anything with my iphone that I can do with my tp2 aside from flash roms.. and I really dont care about that anymore which is why im dropping winmo to begin with. Now on the flip side, gaming...music...app interfaces...response time... no comparison.

I'm just not going to keep spending my money on the same old OS that's been patched and covered with band-aids when there is so much better out there now. And I dont really care about WM7 at this point.. they've already lost my interest.

Obviously you have never played with the iPhone. I used wonmo palm for 13 years and I can say the iPhone which I've had a week now is the most incredible phone I have ever had. Combine with jailbreaking and this thing is just incredible.

Re: getting tp2 today...thinking about iphone..whos have both?

i have messed around w/ an iphone but nothing thats that impressive to persuade me to buy 1, unless it was more customizeable & if it had a slide out keyboard...then MAYBE i would consider getting 1....

And yet, in the same breath even you admit winmo sucks but you bought it anyway and the iphone owners are the ones getting suckered? Yea that makes sense.
