Anyone somewhat regretting the TP2 after seeing the HTC Evo 4G?

[This thread is mainly directed towards Sprint users, but people of other carriers may feel free to join in the discussion]

So I bought my HTC Touch Pro2 from Sprint about two months ago, before the HTC Evo 4G was revealed. It seemed like the best phone for me on Sprint, even though the price made it a little ugly. However, I had been saving for a few months, and I was ready to get one. By the way, I bought this phone for $350 after a $100 rebate. Now the price is $199 for a Touch Pro2 from Sprint, which is ridiculous. Now, after the price has been confirmed for about two weeks of the HTC Evo 4G being only $199, I'm just baffled. This seems like a total ripoff.

Okay then, Sprint users, would you (if you could) trade in your HTC Touch Pro2 for an additional $100 (just a made up upgrade price)? Yeah, you lose the nice keyboard, but the processor speed and RAM are doubled. Plus, bigger screen, better camera (8 MP AND 1.3 MP for front), and 4G in select areas (no 4G in Connecticut, so I don't really care).

In my opinion, this would be a big YES. I'm not saying the Touch Pro2 is a bad phone (sluggish at times, even with good ROMs), but this new Evo 4G is just amazing. I really can't think of anything bad about it.

So, start giving opinions on this issue.

Spoken like a true king. I'm not touchin it with no keyboard. Plus I'm waiting for all the cry babies to cry about something. I was going to, I have 2 lines different accounts same name which people say it no possible. I guess when you have a team in sprint I run with it can happen... Plus all these post about nothing but this Evo. I'm like I don't won't it truthly speaking.

I remember when I had a Treo 800W everyone was saying how they were waiting (al long time too) for the TP1 because it was going to be the end-all-be-all phone.

Then the problems started surfacing.

Given that, the EVO does look mighty tempting..

I'm a lazy bastard and I just will wait till windows 7 comes out because I really like windows mobile as much as everybody else hates it so hopefully windows 7 will be as sexy as android and the ipone os

No and for the simple reason that I have to get out of the $30 SERO plan. The EVO seems a great phone with great features. But soon enough, there will be another phone beating the EVO for features. Then what? Right now, I spend less than $80 (inclusive of all taxes and fees) per month for 2 phones that have unlimited data/web/texting. If I have to go to EVO, I would be paying $80 + tax & fees for 1 phone. The TP2 has the same resolution as the EVO, though smaller in size. I already have many WM apps that I paid for. I am in no mood to let them go. I love the TP2 physical keyboard, though the camera on the TP2 sucks.

I hardly watch YouTube and I don't think web browsing on a 800x480 screen is any fun. I can always wait and go home and browse the web on my 28" screen & another 24" screen pivoted. For my needs, the TP2 will do fine.

For those willing to pay more for a phone, may you have all the fun you need with the EVO.
