Then to my amazement sprint agreed with no questions asked except would it be possible to do different colors and could the factory cover be available, then there was also the question of covers, I then brought up that the phone design is ment to be shown off but the back portion could be the key for design, Also explained this would be a useful way to promot the extended battery, sprint again agreed no questions asked, and for once there was a pause from HTC on the conference call ( can you say heaven? ). So its looking again so far but has not be comfirmed or put into design.

critical, to make responding to multiple questions easier on yourself click the "Multi Q" for everyone that you want to respond to and for the last click the quote button.

That way, it will be much easier than what you did a few posts back.


My question, how much better is the phone's performance with tf3d disabled?

I bow down to you!!

You just made my week! And it's been a pretty bad week... quarter exams, delayed monitor, etc.

Wow... I'm seriously SOOO happy!

So if all goes well, the back cover would be an optional accessory? I wonder when it will be available!

And I know this has probably been discussed before, but does the Pro have a backlit keyboard? If so, what color is the backlight?

I was at my BBY today and saw the Touch Pro. It is extremely smaller than the Mogul, plus it was a dummy phone with no battery. I was also told today from a Sprint Rep they were expecting it 11/17/08. I do not think the Rep knew what he was talking about, I think 11/02/08 is a popular date on this site!

If they want to save money/time, they could design it specifically for sale with the extended battery (choice between diamond back and curved back w/ extended battery). And when considering the design, have it so that it can fit with the normal and extended battery.

Speaking of the extended battery and redesigned backing for that, were there any ideas of how much depth would be added to the phone? As of right now, being the same depth as the mogul is a plus for me, but if it gets a lot thicker, it'd make me not want to get the extended battery.

It will be around the thickness of the mogul with the extended battery but it will be a little smaller, Sprint wants the 2400 mAh i know that for sure.

Awesome! I'm in. Tell HTC and Sprint that if they do that and provide options for back-covers, they've already got one Touch Pro owner sold on the concept alone!...LOL.

I like the silver for sure. The diamond backing would be unique, so it'd be a hard decision for me. Anyhow, thanks again, Critical!
