Touch pro is different then Sprint's version!

There is some great information coming from WMExperts.. I posted the link below... It basically outlines all the differences between the Verizon and the Sprint version...

To summarize...

It lost 8 keys on the slide-out keyboard..
It has a squared-off body, not smooth edged..
RAM is 192 MB instead of 288 MB
GPS locked

Doesn't surprise me. One of the many reasons why I left Verizon for Sprint. Their network isn't THAT good to make up for all the crap they pull with their phones.

Oh my god, I feel bad for Verizon users.

They also crippled the AT&T version as well. The top keyboard row is SYMBOLS, and the numbers are set up just like the Tilt, requiring the FN key.

Looks like Sprint is the only ones that did it right (for once).

Unfortunately is actually is for a lot of people.

It annoys me as much as anybody that vz does this, but I had sprint service free for two years & I would never go back under any circumstance.

Re: Touch pro is different then Sprint's version!

Yeah like John said. The network is just so reliable. I hate how crippled their phones how but hey, what is PPCGeeks for? Lol. It took me forever to try and get a replacment today since the Mogul is still their best phone. I had to call PCD to get them to tell Verizon to give me a replacment. Anyways, that is a shame, but...

You could always get the Sprint version and put it on the Verizon network.

EDIT: Here's a tutorial on how to put the Sprint version on VZ - LINK

I really don't understand what vz gains by doing this??

Do they buy the crippled phones for 1/2 price??
