Rushing out to purchase the junk that HTC decides to toss at us is the reason why they will never fix their older phone. An aluminum back cover with a small amount of heat transfer tape on the area that gets hot below the light and on the battery is a quick fix but they will never do it. (Yeah, I made a make-shift one that worked)

GPS lag is a completely fixable issue that they just don't give a damn about. I can get videos to play good after converting it to the perfect specs. I see no lag in nearly 100% of non htc phones. I don't believe anyone that says that their tp is lagless. The specs say that the tp 1 is a "Fully built and turbocharged Viper" but at times it functions like a "Ford Excursion with a 50cc engine with a blown cylinder".

The loss of flash? I admit that flash is worthless for photos but I use that feature more than I make calls. LOL this is a complete downgrade IMO.

FAIL!

Qualcomm 7600 > Qualcomm 7201A
WVGA > VGA
New Manila > Old Manila
Notification LED > Non-existent
New (larger) Keyboard > Old (smaller) Keyboard
New Loud Speaker > Old (failure) Loudspeaker
Proximity Sensor > Non-existent
Tilt Screen > Non-existent
No overheating > Overheating
GSM Radio > No GSM Radio
3.5mm Jack > 2.5mm Jack

Should I just stop now? Because I can't see how this is a downgrade in any way shape, or form. Please note, to understand this comparison to the TP the > symbol means "greater than".
