Should I keep my Tp2 or...

...or take it back and wait for vzw to release an android phone (In a few weeks). See I love my TP2 in almost every way, it has a kick a** keyboard and a very nice screen. But... lets face it windows mobile is no iphone OS (which Iv played with alot and like mostly) or android (never played with it but I will for sure when my buddy gets his hero this weekend). And winmo 6.5 is really nothing more then some lipstick slapped on a pig, I only really want 6.5 for the new version of tf3d the rest is just gravy.

So to the point of my post, Im conflicted about what I should do stay with what I have or take it back and wait for something else. I know its not always greener on the other side and like I said I really like this phone. I know once the hspl is released itll improve things abit (and ill be able to get that new tf3d version). I know with my old ph the mogul custom roms breathed life into it a number of times but to be honist im kinda got tired after a while of flashing rom after rom to right to find the "right" one and im ready for something that just "works" without need/wanting to flash a new rom every week/month.

Sorry for the rambling but I would love yalls thoughts.

youre starting to sound like p-slim

to the op i don't agree with you. like the subzero stated, you say it like its a bad thing. if you like the iphone os then you should go buy a iphone. correct winmo is no iphone os nor would i want it to be. Its hard for us to answer your question because we like our os and are proud to have it.

Re: Should I keep my Tp2 or...

For me it depends on needs...

For business:
WifiRouter
Push e-mail
Voicemail -comes through as wav attachment in e-mail
keyboard (not touch-screen)

So.. i can't be productive with an iPhone or Android at this point. For me the choice is simple. Although i still would stick with the TP2 because i hate typing on the touch-screen even if i could do all those things on an iPhone or Android.

Re: Should I keep my Tp2 or...

get rid of your tp2... you obviously don't appreciate it or what winmo has to offer.

Re: Should I keep my Tp2 or...

If interface is all you need there are plenty of interfaces you can get..anythign from iPhone to android look a likes...I think you can even run a wm6.5 interface in wm6.1...

Questions is...why did you buy this phone in the first place? what were you expecting from it?

So you know..its not like iPhone just works..it just restricts you from doing anything that won't work...its like saying..you are free to pick anything as long as its one of these 2 options.

Re: Should I keep my Tp2 or...

Hmm..
Iphone Eh!!!
How about that i want a phone that doesnt make me look like a 5 yr old who wants a phone for the "games"
Games-get a PS3 portable

TP2- Main plus A keyboard, which rules, i would never ever go back to a software keyboard

I am sure that the TP2 does more, i cant complain about exchange sync, Iphone ( i am an IT admin), dont even start with the calendar sync issues..

You want an Iphone get an Iphone, stop comparing the OS'es
