I like TP so much that I use TP 3.5 95% of the time in my TP2 anyway (I have Swype installed also, but I personally prefer TP 3.5)

Using TP & their T+ technology, I can type INSANELY fast (much faster than even the TP2 hardware KB)

Sure they would, because the one you describe would be so big you would need a "man-purse" to carry it in.............

There will never be such a "perfect" phone....

Make a perfect phone and you would not need to make other phones....Just ask Apple.

I played with the hd2 ad nauseum and I was even going to purchase one for 400 bucks on craigslist - till the possibility of not upgrading to wp7s came around.
I still want the device but only if wp7 will come out on it either in a leaked beta build or final build

Nothing beats a hardware kb and the tp2 is excellent in that regard. Best I've used. I'd still prolly get a HD2 if verizon came out with it. It has everything else I'm looking for. And as for wp7, I hate losing my hundreds of dollars worth of apps that would be useless. So a fantastic device as the hd2 is would certainly keep me happy till the wm7 hoopla settles. Alas, I think "big red" will be a no show re" HD2.

Don't hate on apple, they have the number 1 selling phone ever. There is only 1 of them and only on one company. If there was one phone to be considered perfect it would be the iPhone. I looked into getting an iPhone for my brother and their monthly plans are outrageous, I can't believe that many people pay that much monthly for that phone. That phone single handedly save att and allows them to charge that much. Maybe Its not perfect but its the next best thing. I live in California and I mean everyone has a damn iPhone.

I am not an iphone fanboy, but if they decided to release the device on Sprint, I am not sure I would be able to hold myself back.

Apple released a phone that didn't necessarily give us things that we didn't have already, but they just gave us everything in a better package and if you are in denial about that, all WM developers are creating all there new apps based on what the iPhone has brought to the game. It is all about fancy GUI's, sliding and scrolling, etc, which has exploded due to the iphone......

Seriously, the iphone is probably the best thing to happen to WM as well. Everyone made out better because of it! On top of that, if the iPhone was to release on Sprint or Verizon, I am willing to bet, you will see a lot of people jump ship.......Now let's see what WM7 can bring to the table.....And if you do not think the iPhone had any influence on WM7, you should go and get sick again!

My point being, give the people 1 phone with all the goodies, and that is all you need. Not a bunch of devices each with shortcomings. The TP2 should have never been released with such a crappy processor. It is not like HTC doesn't know it is out of date.

Whether you like the iphone or not, it has sold millions and millions and for good reason.....

After having a Vogue for 2 years I'll NEVER go back to Touch Screen only. I'm Madly in love with my TP2. I'm even looking for a way to totally disable the onscreen KB.
