i wish they could've released the tp2 with a 1ghz processor. might've kept me on strictly winmo until wp7 came around....

Good Point!

I agree that they need to move fast but I don't think they are ahead. They are already falling far behind. Windows Phone 7 needs to be a hit right out of the gate otherwise they'll never catch up to Apple or Android.

My problem is that I'm starting to realize that it's ridiculous to have "normal lag". That's the most annoying thing ever. It doesn't matter which WinMo phone I've used, I've always had this lag and it's the most frustrating thing ever. I used to tweak my phone out, flash ROMs, all that other fun stuff. Now I hate my TP2 becuse it freezes up, lags, or just acts stupid on the most basic tasks, like checking/typing/sending texts or emails. I hardly have any software installed and I don't do much on my phone except browse, sync 1 email acct, text, and occasional GPS use. I don't see why I should have to tweak/hack/customize my phone just to get those basic tasks to work efficiently.

The problem with the TP2 and most other WinMo Phones is that the hardware is too slow. It's true that a lot of people are saying the TP2 sucks because newer phones are coming out, but honestly I don't blame them. I much prefer WinMo over the Android, but I'd take the Evo in the heartbeat (a +$10/mo heartbeat lol) just because it's faster and I wouldn't have to worry about it lagging every time I wanted to check and send texts. Wish I could get a HD2, but T-Mobile is not an option for me at all.

tmobile just went live with hspa+ up there in dallas, faster speeds than sprint and no 10.00 extra for it. Why are you against tmobile?

As it has been said before new phone envy. No problems with my TP2, the evo is nice, but I am not ready to play with android just yet.

Re: Whats up with everyone hating the Touch Pro 2 all of a sudden?

I just wait for TP3 :P w/ the hardware keyboard and upgraded processor, ram, ROM and program memory

Re: Whats up with everyone hating the Touch Pro 2 all of a sudden?

i Also wish i could get a HD2, ive gaulked at that phone more than other phone on the market.
i would have it. but i travel so much, and work in odd places that it isn't worth it.
