Whose keeping there Touch just for Android

[jdw7985]

I was on the verge of selling my Touch for money towards a pro but I'm now running Android and my Touch seems to have so much new life to it. It seems that the possibilties are endless and the UI is so smooth. Just wondering if the fact that this is one of the few phones be developed with Android does this make you wanna hold on a little longer.

Just a quick noob question as I am trying to learn. I have the VX6900 variant, if I put android on it, will it still work as my verizon phone?

I have to agree with you on that one. With TF2d, a working version of opera, and many of the opal aps, like slide to answer, I dont see much of an upgrade to the diamond or touch pro. I was planning on getting the pro, but my touch doesnt lag, battery lasts all day, and I'm still going strong on the Full screen keyboard. I want to wait for a windows mobile 7 phone that differentiates its self more from the touch. Not to mention android is really starting to take off on the vogue, I see a lot of possibilities once more developers start to see the potential and dive in.

Yep for the most part the biggest thing I was waiting on was SD card support which now works...A few freeware App stores are working. All in all it's pretty funtional minus GPS and a selection of on screen keyboard and buttons.

sounds awesome! i don't know if i'm ready to switch over to it just yet seeing as android is still fairly new, but oncei get bored with everything my touch has to offer right now, i will definately make the move

you can try it out as it doesnt overwrite winmo. http://www.myhtcphone.com

Install the cab file there, run Android, play with it. reset your phone to go back to WinMo
