Sent from my Epic 3G on SERO.

Ooh didn't know about the "cool fee".

Any suggestions on whom to call for this plan upgrade and reasonable price on the EVO or Epic phone.

I'm 1 year in on TP2.

Thanks again for the info.

I just played with Android 2.2 on my TP2, looking pretty good but not real usable but it certainly gives you a good flavor.

We are also wondering which phone to go to ....

I think my decision will be made as to how the windows 7 phone is locked down and if I can use it the way I want to ...

Otherwise we will be looking at either the Android or the New Iphone

If we switch look for our contributions (below) to be either ported or discontinued

I'm torn. On the TP2, I can do FTP and SSH (which I use for work). Can't do that on WP7 so far. Android can do both, I assume, but can't do sharepoint NTLM, which WP7 can do. I'm jealous of the speed, particularly with browsers, that I'm seeing on the newer smartphones but I think I have to wait it out for awhile.

You can access NTLM on Android..using Firefox 4 Beta..

There is also this browser:

SPElements Quick Browser for SharePoint (Android Application)

If you highly depend on Voice Command on TP2 you can just forget about Android right now.

It don't work, as incredible as that may seem.

If you copy all your exchange contacts to GMail and maintain duplicate lists I'm told it will work. But I have sensitive info in my contacts that I don't want on a google server.

Totally unbelievable.

Voice command works fine on 2.2 and there are software that make it better..

What software to make it better and what security issue?

I looked and looked and even popular former TP2 Chefs get queried about a fix like OMJ and said sorry, it's still broken.

If you store your contacts in GMail it works. What I had to do was export them from outlook, strip out the Notes in Excel and import them in Gmail. Now I have to maintain two sets of contacts if I want it to work.

I have not rooted it yet and probably will. But folks that build Custom ROMs don't have an answer yet. It was only since V2.2 they had Bluetooth Dialing at ALL.

Now that I have done that hack, it's working fairly well. But Voice Dial did hang once as well.

I don't regret getting it. But boy what a disappointment that was. I'm glad I waited at least this long for Android.

I think new phone every 6 month is excessive, but I get the bug every year. With the money I save on SERO I justify it to myself I'm still on SERO Premium now.
