Re: Disappointed so far (coming from Sprint Diamond)

I can relate to the Op. Upgrading to the Pro is also a downgrade IMO. If I jump **** to the Pro2, I will loose some key features that I loved on my Pro1. In which are magnetic stylus, LED flash and Capacitive Dpad. Those items imo were modern.

i never used stylus (only to soft reset lmao) so never cared about that, the led flash i do miss. But the dpad on tp has got to be the #1 worst Ive ever experienced in life, and i actually know how to use it, it was so hard to explain to somebody using my phone lol. you can keep that

Re: Disappointed so far (coming from Sprint Diamond)

My wife loves the Diamond hand-me-down. She think it's the best phone since sliced bread. My wife is basic when it comes to technology though - phone, few games, contacts, some internet. I on the other hand need everything under the sun. She appreciates the Diamond's size, fit, and finish.

Different needs for different folks. I think this is a simple case of a.) the users needs do not match correctly with the offering of the phone and b.) slab style phones are not sliders... they are almost always bulkier, and more complex.

Sometimes having the best phone that does a whole lot of EVERYTHING is not better then having a phone that just does what one needs.

Re: Disappointed so far (coming from Sprint Diamond)

mine wants a tp2 basically for the battery life, she has to charge her diamond 2 times a day vs my none, plus, she has a big purse to hold it.lol

Re: Disappointed so far (coming from Sprint Diamond)

my wife loves her instinct. tried the tp and hated it. my brother had the 6700, 6800 and 6850. he now owns a palm pro. not everyone are winmo or htc fans. (now watch how many posts behind this one defending htc and winmo lol)

i agree with you, winmo is not for everyone. I don't mind being the minority because it keeps us off the radar and we get to keep our sero and other grandfathered packages. Honestly winmo is not very user friendly until they started with touch flo. Now windows is trying to change that which is now why the tp2 and all of the other new winmo devices don't have control pads because 6.5 and above should be very user and finger friendly. We are all ppcgeeks on this website so we can make it work but there are so many people out there with ppcs who just want them to work without having to jump on websites like this. the iphone, android, and blackberry's are user friendly and efficient right out of the box, as you can tell by this website we need to tweak our phones. But in the end we do need more tweaks but our phones can also do 10x more then any other phone out there, iphone included.

Re: Disappointed so far (coming from Sprint Diamond)

i concur slim, i love my tp over my bb when it comes to web, and sprint tv, i watch alot of movies on my tp. i love winmo. but the bb just does some of the simplest things and i still have great battery life. i just don't trust htc anymore and i've had a couple of the models. i will say that they are better than palm lol!

Re: Disappointed so far (coming from Sprint Diamond)

I really like the size and look of my Diamond but every time I want to write something I instantly hate it! It was my first phone with no real keyboard and probably my last. I've had my eye on my wife's Samsung Impression which is almost same size as the TP2 and I think I can deal with that. It's coming tomorrow morning so we'll see!
