Re: How is the TP2 faster that the TP?
 
I went into a telus store the other day and it didn't seem any faster then my Diamond1 with energyrom.

And I was the very first one to use that unit, they opened the box in front of me <3

In the end I decided not to get it, I would have if it had a 5mpix cam+flash, or a better/much faster processor, or it was a bit smaller.

Please do so. Ppl are refusing to accept that its very identical to Pro1. Pay close attention to how file explorer still has the jerky scrolling and also how the video camera comes to a crawl going from light to dim.

Exactly! HONESTLY IT SHOULD be named Pro .5 Being that its not even a leap forward in hardware specs. They took away 32megs ram, flash led light,dpad,modern cripple cpu, So in paper its a step backwards, thats why i said its Pro .5

I can understand wanting the flash, but more megapixels don't really help a "camera" with crap optics

They didn't take away any RAM, it's been described as a mis-print, and/or a different way of figuring it, because 32 meg is dedicated to something (video, I think) in both units. There is no decrease

Where di you read this? When I checked the system manager on the ppc it said 256. Unless its the same case as VZN Pro ram issue.

It's an error in how the firmware reads the available RAM, an update from HTC fixed it in the European versions so I would assume the final firmware would have the fix, or an update would.

I'd seriously like to know how you tested a TP2 and yet walked away saying you could detect no noticeable difference in performance (as compared to the TP1).

You and I have had polar opposite experiences dude. The TP2 feels like a completely different phone - almost everything is faster and more responsive.

You seem very passionate about your cause but I'm really doubting your story...

For those of you who are wondering about battery performance - that has also been improved quite nicely. I'm a heavy user (data especially) and can go without charging for 2 days. I could never do that with my TP1!

I've found that fanboys of other handsets never give unbiased opinions.
