That keyboard blows, I would rather have my 4-row keyboard, other then that I like the phone.

I don't know if you have ever experienced a Samsung Moment (I never played with a Droid) but that thing will have your head spinnin! The only thing I didn't like is when the screen is in the sunlight its really washed out, but if a glare from a light bulb hits it it looks pretty normal, and when in the dark BOOYY! Slowdown or lag doesn't exist with that thing!

Do you need to upgrade to everything plan to get the Moment?

Regarding your question mark. The Voque has more or less completely usable build of Android. TP1 Diamond1 does not. The port is way ahead of Diamond or Pro. We need to donate a Touch Pro 2 to who did all the work on the Vogue. :)

I dont think its a bad phone. People say the moto quality isnt bad but lets just be real... up until the touch pro 2 HTC products have been straight crap and people dealt with them anyways. From overheating to bad screens to faulty keyboards... lets just be fair here. The TP2 is seemingly the first product that they've gotten right without issues on a major scale but the first TP was a disaster.

I had the opportunity to play around with the droid and it is a solid phone. It definitely isnt built for cosmetics but functionality its A+ no doubt about it.

i have to disagree, the only htc product that didn't do well i would say was the tp1 because of the keyboard and battery overheating, but if you're trying to say the mogul had problems then i would definitely have to disagree with you. htc has made plenty of phones and the only one that didn't fit the bill was tp and diamond because the keyboard would always go out on the tp, and both diamond and tp had battery issues.

I played with a droid last night. The ads make you think it is great beyond great. It is a nice concept in that the screen is big and it runs Android but that is where the great ends. Compared to the TP2 the screen is lackluster. It was really dark and not very responsive to the touch. The TP2 is much better. I just wish you could run Android on the TP2 and get the same wonderful eye candy that we have. You have to admit the screen on the TP2 is elite.

search droid vs touch pro 2 on youtube, you might change your mind on still wanting a droid...... It just cant compare to the tp2....

You can disagree all you want.. but i've had every htc phone from the mogul to the vogue to the diamond to the touch pro to the touch pro 2. The processors were crap and really until now they still hadnt solved the issue on how to keep the phone from getting hot during charge/call/bluetooth. I like HTC but my point is people are talking about moto build quality as if HTC hasnt had its own fair share of problems. It's safe to say that the TP1 was the most problematic phone ever... so much so that Sprint is trying to get it out of rotation altogether.

Yes, I think the lowest plan you can have on a Samsung Moment is the $69.99 data plan!

Yeah, the only thing about that is the Vogue is a very old device! I don't see me going out of my way to get a Vogue just to put Android on it! The only difference I see in the Android OS is the stability (mainly because every Android phone I've looked at has more memory to work with than a WM device) and the apps, which to me aren't all that great! Put a custom rom on a WM device and the stability blows Androids out the water! Other than that its just a different interface! Truthfully I'd rather have Manila 2.5 over Android......just my opinion though!
