Verizon HTC TOUCH PRO Information

[criticalaudioinc]

Due to this is becoming a big question to alot of users I am starting this thread to provide information on the device as I did with Sprints model.

Big Question?:

First Big questions is will the phone be crippled? From the Spec sheet we have from verizon yes. But here is the kicker! The test model verizon provided is using a 7501a chipset. Makes you curious correct? After discussing this with verizon earlier this past week, it was explained that DOWNGRADING the device may lead to less sales and conflicts ( I think we all agree with this one! ).

Whats Currently going on?:

Verizon is currenlty in discussion about NOT crippling the phone. Now if this was the case then verizon would need a new FCC approvel. Would this take long? Nope. Would there be a delay? Yes. Now the reason for verizon discussing this is due to the fact of previous issues and crippling other phones and options.

Whats the Possibility?:

As of right now this currenlty in discussion, so there is a 50/50 chance of the verizon phone not being crippled. But why send a test model with a different chipset? When I asked this question all that was said was it was a TEST model for review. Of course my statment was then when do we receive the DEMO model for testing and troubleshooting? Late Oct to early Nov.

The Plan?:

I will keep this updated with all information and also once we receive the DEMO model from verizon.
