Uhh & the Sprint Touch Pro 2 isn't... Come'on, get real buddy...

Read a few posts up, driver issues & what not will already be a factor for the Pro2.... welcome to the club before the phone gets here.

This is why we hack & tweak...

I guess it's just gonna be personal opinion. In my opinion just the screen alone is worth 300 bucks to upgrade. It's gonna be about a year before the next gen snapdragon/WM7/WiMax phones get here, I'm not gonna spend that year with a 2.8 inch screen when I could have something better during that time. Even if it was completely 100% identical and they called it a Touch Pro 1.1 because the only change was a 3.6 inch WVGA screen I would pay 300.00 for it. That being said, I'm gonna pass on it anyway :P I think I want the Omnia 2 or the Whitestone.

I've stuck with the Mogul, after getting everything working right. The TP would also quickly prove to be full of initial problems, and I didn't want to spend 6 months of the 1st year of ownership fixing them, like I did with the Mogul. But my Mogul (only 1 replacement) is getting tired, I have no backup phone in the event of a total failure (my 1st one just had button issues, but was useable until the replacement came), and I can't afford to be without a phone for even a day, 7 days a week, as I care for about a billion dollars of properties. So it's time I put the Mogul into use as an emergency reserve, and get the TP2. All the upgrades from the Mogul to to TP will apply to me (more RAM, etc.), plus the few more from the TP to the TP2.

That being said, I WILL wait at least a week or so, until problems creep up, and I determine if they are too great. However, with so many tweaks from the TP and Diamond that will work on the TP2 (or be quickly forthcoming), I don't think it will take so long to get it working smooth. We will also benefit from the TP2 being out for a while in GSM, and a month or so in CDMA, so fixes/solutions will already be happening.

But, if features I need are having issues, I will wait as long as it takes, or get something else. But I really hope this works. I like Sprint and SERO

Alltel users like me will be waiting permanently since in a few months we're being shipped over to Atlantic Tele Networks. Good God I'm dreading it. I'm already looking for ways to get out of contract. Push comes to shove I'm going to send this damn TP in for every little thing and invoke the lemon law. I'll be damned if I'm pushed to some out-of-the-blue roaming provider that operates primarily in the Caribbean!

I'm gonna pass on the TP2 as well. I don't think a bigger screen and a louder speaker is worth buying another phone. Even if the tp2 has excellent battery life, it's ok. My phone can last all day on a single charge, and that's all I need.
