TP2 & TP1 Are The Same Spec Wise, Why Is The TP2 So Much Better?

I owned the Sprint PPC-6700, PPC 6800, Touch Pro, and now Touch Pro 2. Out of all of these Windows Mobile based phones, none come close to the Touch Pro 2.

You can speculate that the specifications look similar which is exactly what I was thinking. I originally bought a Touch Pro 2 based on the screen and battery life alone, but much to my surprise, I got a great deal more in regards to performance over my Touch Pro.

In just about every area I looked, it was better. It is definitely faster. The screen is a dramatic improvement. The battery life is much better. The biggest surprise of all, was the speaker, or should I say speakers. The sound quality is night and day. The microphone array is also greatly improved and when combined with much better sounding and louder speakers, I can now actually use the speakerphone when driving my car.

Don't get me wrong, I still use may original Touch Pro. I use it as a data hookup for my laptop

Agreed with the larger, higher resolution being the reason I upgraded, but the real surprise for me was the near-instant lock the GPS on the TP2 has. I have had a TP1, Fuze, & Tilt, and all of them had fairly slow GPS locks...not this bad boy.
