Will the Touch Pro 2 be short lived? My personal dilemma.

erick10, i should have mentioned i'm the cheapest of cheapskates. $375+tax and paypal fees is too much for me for a phone, although i like your line of thinking. i could probably get close to breaking even if i sold the tp1 on ebay for $200 and paid the regular $150-$199 for the tp2, but then i'd have to wait a year for upgrade or pay retail. i'm also married and my wife and i usually have the same stuff, so she'd need and upgrade too

chong67 and rawdikrik have probably persuaded me to not pay for the tp2 (i can still keep trying to get it free for another week). i was looking at this thread http://community.sprint.com/baw/thre...reqsorting=dec
and i only wish my tp1 was that responsive.

any other feedback is welcomed. if sprint was launching the tp2 like it did the palm pre, i'd probably think differently.

My bad Chong. I just checked Ebay and I see a couple of used Touch Pros going for about $280 - $310 used. Now lets say you put $2 a day on your piggy bank everyday, you wont feel the pain of the $3xx of the HD2 if you start saving from today lol. Honestly, my Touch Pro was liquid damaged since 10/20 (I was throw into a pool in a party) and I contacted Asurion and today they agreed to send me a Touch Pro 2 for $100 deductible so that aint bad. Im planning on getting the Touch HD2 if it hits Sprint. Only major problem is losing my $30 Sero Plan if I choose to renew my contract.
