as opposed to the Sprint Touch Pro Spec sheet...

RAM is different
Processor is different
The Verizon Spec sheet says nothing about Accelerometer

we can assume vzw does have it
why would you have teeter without it!? you need an accelerometer for teeter

If it doesn't have an accelerometer on it Verizon really gimped it to make the Blackberry Storm look better.

I really think vzw spends more money screwing things up then if they just left it alone. How many versions are there and verizon is the only one to uniquely make it a piece of crap. First the memory issue, then the "arrow" on the keyboard, GPS locked down, now the accelerometer. Next they will make it Palm OS based with a qvga screen. why not, screwed everything else up. I cant wait to leave verizon (year and a half).

I'm sure it has an accelerometer.

I don't think so... Look at the pic I just posted... All the other details are in line with what is known about the Sprint version vs. the Verizon version... I hope I am wrong on this one...

This is where I found the info at...

Accelerometer has been confirmed time and time over by people whom have actually used the device.

And yes... Teeter... why would they put Teeter on a device that doesn't have an accelerometer?

Honestly, I had been thinking of getting a Sprint Touch Pro and throwing it on The Network, but I'm just gonna go with the VZW model. I'm nowhere near the point where I can get a discout for upgrading, so it'd cost about the same. My major factors in making this decision are A) 192 MB of RAM really seems like enough, B) the keyboard seems dumb, but I'm sure my hands would get used to it within a week, just like they'd adjust to any keyboard layout, C) the GPS is locked down out of the box, but I'm sure I'll have fully functional GPS on my VZW Pro within 2 weeks anyway, but most importantly, D) I need my damn warranty.

There's no way I can buy a $500 device, without the ability to swap it out when I feel like it.

I swap phones when I see a scratch, so I need that warranty.

EDIT- That spec sheet is all wrong. It references a 400 MHz processor, which we know is completely off. Those were the original speculative specs on the VZW Touch Pro, not what we know to be true now.

As of now, the only KNOWN differences are less RAM, and a weird arrow in between "N" and "M".

We don't even know the difference between the way in which the two processors will perform, or if there will be differences at all.

What benchmark utility can be used on both versions of the tp? That can test the ram and processor differences? I will soon have access to both...

Why would I want to pay full price for a Sprint Touch Pro then put it on Verizon when I can get it at Alltel for $279.99 which WILL BE Verizon in the near future?

Original question was is the Alltel Touch Pro like the Sprint Touch Pro, the AT&T Fuse, or the Verizon XV6850?
