I'm definately passing on the TP2. It's just not worth it....for me, anyway.

I am happy to upgrade. I have a sprint TP on verizon. I am tired of not having insurance and everytime I plug it in, it brings up the Activesync menu even though its only a charger. I don't think it will make it another 8 months till the next gen arrives. Its time to make it the back up assuming I can get the ESN added to vzn. I panic everytime it takes extra time to startup thinking its finally toast.

Heard of Manila 2.6

Are you sure about that, Most chefs are moving to the TP 2 or diamond 2. Touch pro is slowly dying. Noticed the lack of Rom updates. Besides you need a bigger res screen to run it right

I'm starting to lean towards waiting. My wife and I both have a Titan (XV6800) and my new every two is up in November. As long as VZW still has the original TP in stock, I should be able to upgrade both of us to that phone for $100 total. If VZW is reasonable with their pricing I may still go TP2 and get my wife a TP. But I don't really expect VZW to be reasonable. :P

I feel that same way. i upgraded from the PPC-6700 to the TP and think it was a good move. Day and night difference- still buggy and I still had to return the hardware a couple of times. I think the upgrade will have to be somthing big- i.e. internal storage 8 gb+ with microSDHC...5 megapixal cam with HD (720p) recording....3.5mm headphone jack( I think HTC got the hints!).... stable release of wm6.5( or even Android).... I would do the 1yr resign if this tyoe of phone popped out-

im like you- holding out for Tegra/snap....

TP should keep me satisfied for now.

i'm intrigued by the screen but i'm more concerned about the heat factor. if the tp1 gets really hot with a 2.8" screen and the tp2 basically has the same specs but bigger screen, i wonder.....
