That made me chuckle... it's kinda like when people ask

"Is that like the iPhone?"
"No, its better."
"What is it?"
"Its the Touch Pro"
"What?"

By that time I'm 4 miles away doing something OTHER than wasting my time explaining how the iPhone has nothing on the TP.

If I want video, I buy a video player. If I want games, I buy a PSP. What I have is a phone...a phone lol. It does movies ok and does some games ok. I am rather happy.

I have to agree...videos and games are bonuses and not a prereq...even then, I have not had an issue with my TP.

Besides...*gulp*...I have an iPod Touch for THAT other stuff...

Anyway, I think since the iPhone set the bar IN THE GENERAL PUBLIC'S eye...every other smartphone, winmo device, ppc....whatever we want to call them will ALWAYS get compared to the iPhone...whether its comparing (no pun intended) apples and oranges.

I started with HTC with a Mogul...and I don't think I'll be leaving HTC anytime soon. Especially when HTC will probably be the manufacturer to Sprint's Android phone...that day will come when we have to decide if we'll go there and leave WinMo behind.

Whether there is a graphics issue with the TouchPro and the Diamond really depends on the individual. If a segment of TP/Diamond owners raise a fuss and a fix emerges from HTC...and BENEFITS ALL...hey more power to them.

You open your keyboard and it breaks, or your screen cracks for no reason...those are issues that are well within your right to complain about. Those things are not supposed to happen.

Now on the flip side, your video doesn't play like a dedicated video player or you can't play Doom the way the iphony or what ever does is not HTC's fault. It's the consumers fault because the consumer keeps buying these phones and telling HTC "great job! Can't wait for your next fabulous phone!"

As has already been stated, the best way to get HTC's attention is to NOT buy the phone. You already knew the performance wasn't up to your standards so why did you buy the phone?

This reminds me of what happened last night with my daughter. She wanted to go to a friends b-day party so we let her. She gets home about 8pm and starts crying because she is "over whelmed" with homework and doesn't know how she will ever get it done. Why then did she go to the party?

If you want a Porche, buy a Porche, if you want a Pinto, buy a Pinto but don't buy a Pinto and expect it to drive like a Porche.

this is a business phone ... intended for business use. not playing games, if you wanna play games get that icrap and join the kids that are running around with one because it plays cool games ..... again this is only my opinion .

im gonna gt back to work now

It seems that 27 believe it's an issue, and that 21 believe it's a major issue, while 12 believe there is no issue.. Must be the split between pure business users as Micro stated and the more straight up enthusiast user?

Damn.. according to this video. Looks like the GSM version Pro has WAY better video drivers than we do. Just look how smooth that it! I went to the same site and its like the other sites.. a bit choppy. What do you all think?

I agree. This is a business first, play second type of phone. Considering as much, the TP is still the most feature packed business phone out there IMO. I sure as heck dont install server 2008 so I can play call of duty on it.
