webos is awesome..but i have concerns bout the hardware again. ive got the oreo effect..lol I hope this is just one of the early models..waiting to hear back from sprint regarding a replacment.. as i will not be driving 30 + miles to a repair center...they can mail out a replacement and i will return the defective pre.. done that many times before in the past dont know why they are making a big deal bout it now.lol

One thing i liked from the windows mobile is that with SPB backup i could backup my whole phone with all reg edits and ring tones and everything. i miss that and the screen is huge. any way im still thinking about it but i dont know what to do now.

I'm in a similar boar, I have the Pre, been using it on and off since July (rotates with my Diamond), and my wife just got the TP2. The TP2 is a really sick phone and much improved over the original, the camera and build quality are my favorite and most notable improvements. The Pre is cool, but for some reason I haven't used it in 3 weeks... It is a nive phone with a great OS, unfortunately I don't know if WebOS is here to stay. Goo

What is Oreo Effect?

The "oreo" effect is phone turning like an oreo cookie when you take off the top and bottom of the cookie.

It is the subtle twisting between the two (top and bottom) halves of the phone. If you don't try to "twist your phone like an oreo," it shouldn't be an issue.

I am soooo curious to try, but I won't, since it sounds like it could be a problem.
