LOL Was hoping for an effeminate female human rather than an effeminate phone in the deal!

Re: What can the TP2 do that iPhone or Droid can't?

I'm torn between the Moto Droid and TP2.

DROID PROS:

The Droid runs quicker than the TP2 and does a better job with battery life (Droid lasts two days on stock battery where TP2 only lasted for one... with an extended battery)

The extensive app store is interesting but since I've only had it for a week, I've not fully explored it

I find the Moto Droid's voice call quality superior to the TP2 ... best I've heard in a smartphone thus far. And, it connects to my car's bluetooth without funky issues. Unlike the TP2.

It's lighter in weight and slimmer than the TP2.


TP2 PROS:

TP2's keyboard is the most awesome ever. Beats Moto Droid hands down (I hate the fact that the Droid does not have dedicated number keys). I also find touch typing on the TP2 easier/more accurate compared to the Droid (frustrating to touch type with).

The TP2 syncs with Outlook (no exchange) without issues. Droid requires file conversions with Gmail, etc. PITA.

TP2 has my favorite RSS news aggregator, Viigo. Droid does not.

TP2's email pull notifications are better than the Droid: it pulls in the time increments as it was set and rings accordingly. The Droid's email system (non-Gmail) only notifies you when it feels like it, even when you set the pull time increments. Not good as a business phone. I had to use a third party email app, but it is still slower than the TP2. Very strange.

These are my observations with the Droid. It's not my main phone.

Re: What can the TP2 do that iPhone or Droid can't?

I have the typical love/hate with my Touch Pro 2. Sometimes it works Great, other times I can't even answer a call.
I'll usually get bored with the ROM I'm running and try out one of the latest.
Just loaded bignadad's MaxSense and Highly recomend it if your looking for something different. So far it's pretty sweet! http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=122177

Really the only significant advantage it has over the EVO is the money I save each month on my plan(around $25/month after discounts.) I just ordered an EVO on bestbuy.com and it let me keep my current plan, so I'll see what happens, if they actually ship it, when I try to activate it.

Re: What can the TP2 do that iPhone or Droid can't?

I have a real problem with phones that have "soft keys". Even just a few hard keys are always good on a phone.
