Re: Why is TP2 better than iphone

iPhone's capacitive touch screen is nice, but I prefer resistive touch screen over the capacitive one.
Because I am heavy stylus user, and I have need to use apps like remote desktop or VNC that demands pin point accuracy.

When I have to get surgical with application like them, nothing beats stylus's precision, and TP2's generous screen size and WVGA resolution has been nothing but blessing to me as an IT.
If you are an IT, then you know how annoying it is when you get called in the middle of dinner with your family, out at the restaurant.

With TP2, I can access and take control of any servers and workstations at my company to work on them, and the best part is.. unlike my laptop.. it is always in my pocket, always powered on and always ready to connect. Plus its gorgeous slidout keyboard and ability to click on the icons or items with stylus on the touch screen beats the crap out of the annoying laptop touchpad.

Life has never been better as an IT.

You make a valid point and even though I hate the resistive screen, I am starting to like it after reading your post!

Re: Why is TP2 better than iphone

One big reason you know the TP2 is better:

iPhone fans sit and post in the TP2 forum and don't go away

They can't resist!

The iPhone is better for music. The TP2 is better for work.

Allow me to rephrase;

The iPhone is better for music, the TP2 is better for everything else(including music).

No kidding.

I really wish there was a WM media player that even came close to my ipod touch, but there isn't.

I finally got away from grabbing the ipod everytime I wanted to browse the internet by installing the newest Opera Mini, now if we could just get a better mp3 player I could finally sell the ipod........
