any estimated release date?

I'm not excited by the TP2... It looks highly rushed as there is almost no major difference between the TP and the TP2 (in terms of raw specs).

Comparing the two we only get...

A larger screen and tilt ability?

I will pass this up and I hope Sprint does too... We need a device with some more raw specs increasing. Faster CPU or more RAM at the VERY least.

These new phones are purely cosmetic. Although I like the new look, the hardware is almost identical...

Well for me this is more of what I was waiting for before I upgrade my mogul. The same old 2.8 screen didnt cut it for me so I am pleased with these specs.

On the other hand does this mean that now the touch HD will never come to this US?

Put the Touch Pro 2 in a Diamond2 style casing
*keep the 5MP camera
*make it black.
*keep the speaker phone,
*upgrade the processor speed

*add in heat shields and optimize the battery. Include video (2D, 3D) drivers.
- oh and Running on Windows Mobile 6.5 (black scroll bars would look nice eh?) with Manila HD

I know about those threads, I posted here since content wise, it belongs the most here since it's news that doesn't just appeal to Diamond or Touch Pro users. I cross posted on those threads too, and I think my post a little more high content/useful than "here's a link" that the OP are in those threads.

I agree with TalynOne. This is not phone specific news, its new device news that everyone will probably be interested in.

Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like HTC has finally accomplished their goal of phasing out every possible hardware button. No d-pad from what I can see on the TP2.
