Question for all those who have upgraded from TP1

[azurecrayon]

ive had my tp2 about 7 weeks and absolutely love it. these are the things that stand out to me:

pro:
screen - its huuuuuge. i could not go back to a smaller screen. for web and video its a must.
"screen off" feature in calls - ended my tp1 frustration with my cheek opening multiple programs during a phone call.
battery - i can go two days without a charge and am fine, my tp1 had to be charged every night or it was dead by morning.
keyboard - larger keys, better layout, smoother feel to them.
more stable - doesnt lag as much, havent seen any freezes or glitches at all really.
solid feel - it feels like a well built phone, much better than the tp1 in that regard.

cons:
no tab key - i miss this one a lot.
no flash - i use the camera a lot, the lack of flash is extremely aggravating, especially when you know the predecessor had it.
typing lag - i get funky lag when typing into the browser addy bar, no matter how fast i type, it only enters one letter per flash of the cursor. havent bothered to figure out whats causing that.
no scroll wheel/d-pad - i think this was another lacking feature missing from this descendant. i get annoyed trying to flick through the programs and end up accidentally opening one when trying to scroll around.
beveled edges and slanted sides - the phones beautiful, but a bitch to put a skin on. makes it hard to really protect your phone.

something im ambivalent about is the stock rom being a lot less winmo-ish. its set up out of the box to be more icon driven like the iphone, and less like a mini-computer os like we saw on the tp1. ive always been a windows girl tho, and been using winmo phones for nearly 3 years, so it was hard for me to get used to. havent bothered to flash a cooked rom or change it, so obviously doesnt annoy me too much.

overall i think htc made some mistakes in removing features that previous models had, but they did add some new features that, while not making up for the lacking ones, are enough to make the phone more desirable than the tp1.

not $349 more desirable, in my opinion. but i'd easily pay $200 for the upgrade.
