I have a legacy plan that currently has 2 lines on it, Unlimited Texting for both, Unlimited Data for both, Unlimited Nights and Weekends, Unlimited Mobile to Mobile, and Insurance on one line. I pay $71.11 after taxes for both lines.|

Edit: It's on a Family Plan with 1,000 anytime minutes. Also it's a Nationwide plan, so it has unlimited roaming.

I'm on the $30 SERO plan. With taxes it's about $35 a month. 500 anytime minutes, unlimited text and data, free weekends and nights after 7, plus Sprint Pick 3 (3 unlimited numbers).

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

I prefer resistive screens. They're more accurate and work just as well with a screen protector.

It has a really nice keyboard, which is great for e-mails.

It has full MS Exchange functionality.

The learning curve for WinMo has been downgraded since MS Marketplace and HTC Sense were implemented.

It can stealth tether and work as a WiFi hotspot

multitouch ftw, cant be done on resistive. i agree more accurate, ive used a toothpick on my tp2 but honestly i would sacrifice that for multitouch. honestly never thought it was that big of a deal before but it does make a lot of things easier and faster

agreed, however there are android phones coming with a similar kb to the tp2:


plus dictating an email entirely by voice without any mistakes is pretty good too

how does the marketplace make winmo easier to navigate? last i heard there were a couple thousand apps in there. which ones in there make winmo easier for the avg person? my mom got an imagio and trust me, the marketplace couldnt help her get around that phone and shes been in IT for almost 30 years, shes no dummy! sense does make basic functions easier to find though i agree.

droid does, with root (i get the voids you warranty part, no need to mention it but the functionality is avail. nonetheless) and can tether via usb without root.
