Skyfire just didn't work and i didn't concern myself with it lol. Opera 9 works perfect i can get opera 10 to work but as soon as i soft reset that hoe shits out on me.

TLDR: Does email work on metro on the 40 dollar plan. (The one that is not supposed to have email)

my two yahoo emails work just fine, but I could never get gmail and that windows live email to work lol

I believe Metro is either blocking apps or having a major network problem!

I believe you could be mistaken, I've noticed alot of touch pro and diamond issues are having network and app issues, including windows marketplace, but the tp2 users are not having any issues, as to why, I've no clue, but thats what I found out

I am on the $40 plan and gmail and my personal pop server work perfect. Picking up mail is a bit slow though. I had a lot of issues with this as I got the phone on Saturday. Nothing worked right on Sunday, but magically the email stuff worked on Monday. I can't get the twitter app to work. Also IE was the only browser I could get to work until sometime Monday night when Opera started working. My next problem was that MMS was working on Saturday but now it doesn't include the pictures in the messages as of Wednesday. I posted this on another forum and probably sound like a crazy person. But the apps seem really hit or miss each day.

Gmail is going through IMAP and my business email is going through POP. I also did a mobile speedtest and got 1meg down/sec but the connection seems really slow when trying to do stuff.

Another odd thing is that Pandora connects and show the artist playing, but no sound comes out, almost like it's too slow to download the music.

It's a conspiracy by HTC to force users to upgrade to their latest models.

I got my gmail to work over wifi but not data yet twitter app downloads tweets but wont let me update status touch flow 3d fbook integration seemingly does nothing for me.

What rom and radio are you using on the touch pro?

Apps I noticed recently that stopped working on Metro PCS and were working flawlessly at one point;
skyfire (cant establish network connection)-works on wifi
wunderradio (cant establish network connection)- works on wifi
pandora (no audio)- streams

Once again I contend that Metro is either having major issues with some servers, or they are selectively blocking applications in certain regions.
