Any TP2 Converts Here?
 
I have been a windows mobile fan ever since the Compaq IPaq's. I've always thought that WM would be the way to go with the flexability it offers. I purchase a TP2 last October and have loved it every step of the way. But I admit that I have been unfaithful. I purchased the Droid for my wife in Nov of last year and have been eying her device ever since. I would play with it when she wasn't around and add apps to it when she wasn't looking. She would ask me how it got installed and I would tell her it's just an upgrade of some sort. In the end I had to be true to myself and realize that WM and I have grown apart. I received my Droid X on Friday, 7/16 and haven't looked back.

Are there any others out there who have converted to the Droid X? :grin:

Me too. I actually bought the Droid 1 on Launch day last year, but had some trouble 'assimilating' into the Droid commune. I took my Droid back within the 30 days and got my TP2. Have loved the TP2 and all the custom stuff I have been able to do (Cooked my own ROMs, etc).
In the end, however, WinMo 6.X is dead. No new hardware coming our way. I am less than enthused about Win Phone 7, so I had to jump back into the Adroid fold.

Got my X on Launch day, and despite having to re-learn things, I'm pretty happy I did.

I have had my TP2 since the day they became available.

Running NRG ROMs it has been awesome:

I have loved every minute of owning that phone (I still have it). I have owned a TON of phones & that has been hands down the best phone I have ever owned.

That being said, it took about one day to spoilf the hell out of me with the speed etc of the X. This phone is totally awesome & I can't imagine ever going back to WM at this point (& I have been running it since the Apache days)

Loving it here on the X from the TP2 by way of the Imagio. I'll still keep my TP2. The Imagio has become redundant. One advantage I am seeing is the tethering speed. I did this test just now in the same spot that I always sit in on the couch.

The best I ever saw on the TP2/Imagio was 1.6 mbps up. Anyone else seeing fantastic speeds? I wonder what is making the difference. Is it the antenna? The android? The processor?

I never used the TP2 but I have been using WinMO for about ten years now. I moved to the Imagio in October of last year when I switched to VZW and it was OK. When the DINC came out I saw it at the store and knew it was time to leave WinMo behind so I sold my Imagio and bought myself the DINC.

My wife was still using her iPhone, she loved the phone but service was a mess. She finally tired of the lousy service and agreed to move to VZW and I bought her a Droid (since there were no DINC's to be had). She had the Incredible for a couple of weeks when I noticed that the D X was about to drop so we switched phones, she now has the DINC and I turned the droid back in (under 30 days) for the D X for myself.

Stil having an issue with syncing to my Outlook (no exchange server) but finding some potential options for that. I love the screen size for these aging eyes and the speed. My wife is loving the DINC.

I really doubt that Win7 for mobile is going to be able to tear me away from the Android OS. They are just way too late and quite a few dollars short and their new closed OS sounds way too much like Apple.

Had my work TP2 replaced with the DX last week and love the speed, screen and overall coolness.
