I <3 this phone

Just wanted to post a message to thank everyone who helped me/put up with me as I was trying to figure out what I needed to do to tweak this phone to suit my needs. I've come to a point where not only is using the phone second nature, but I've really come to appreciate some of the finer things it can do that other phones can't. I'm still not in love with the speed of WinMo, but considering I went round and round between the HTC Touch Pro, the Centro and the G1 I honestly never thought I'd get to a point where I'd consider the Touch Pro the best phone I've ever owned.

I like it better than the G1. I do. The battery life isn't tremendous, but now that I've "broken it in" or whatever I regularly get through 2 or 3 days without a recharge. Even though I'd like to find a proper second charger for it, I haven't found myself needing one to charge it while at work. It just works and works well. Thanks everyone who helped give me advice even when I wasn't listening well.

I wasn't sure what would or wouldn't work based on the amount of juice each charger would be sending to the phone. I don't want to break anything. I love the phone, but I still don't trust it.

same voltage 5v, only difference is the mA output. i believe the motorola charger actually puts out less mA so it will just charger a little slower.

I have chargers left over from my 6700 and 6800's that still work perfect. They're in all sorts of different shapes and sizes. Some are falling apart at the USB tip as I've used them so long.

Lol. PPCGeeks to the rescue, saving yet another otherwise mediocre HTC product from doom.
