Re: Switching from TP2 to EVO

A month plus and I still hate the keyboard. I knew it would be different, but frankly I now hesitate sending out long emails.

You don't have to keep justifying your decision (maybe its to make yourself feel better about your decision).The EVO is not for everyone, we understand (really, is there ANYTHING that fits everyone?). But for a great majority of people, the EVO is a better choice than the TP2, in so many ways (again, there are specific areas that the TP2, mostly windows related, will be better suited for someone).

Your constant replies and allusion to 'evo fanboys' has me thinking you're actually looking for a fight or someone to dispute you. I won't. I just say congrats on enjoying your TP2 (I enjoyed mine the 9 months i had it and still have it for international travel) but no need to come in every 3 replies saying the same ideas with different wording.
why dont ya just scroll past the post you dont like, look how long it took to post your rant...

Re: Switching from TP2 to EVO

So former TP2 users, do you still feel good about your move to the EVO? I finally took the plunge and have mine on order. I have a little pre-android buyers aniety cause I have been using window mobile for years - apache, mogul, tp1, tp2. At first the EVO seemed like a beast but I think its growing on me. I have seen what windows phone 7 looks like and I am not excited by what I am seeing so I am giving up wainting for that. And the new sansung epic loosk and feels real cheap when I played with it at the store. Any comments appreciated.

Get Swype, problem solved. Ive had the EVO for about a week now. Best phone ever. Its like, a PSP without the control/action buttons, yet its touchscreen. Its a beast. Swype on this is way better than the HW KB and the battery is wonderful.

If you have a contract upgrade, for $200 TAKE IT! BUY IT! This phone is a monster! Ive used every Windows Smartphone under the sun since the Motos had WinCE 2001. Eats the droid for breakfast! Has Mobile Hotspot, up to 8 devices. Only use it on road trips for the laptop. Played NFS Shift on it. Gorgeous. 10/10 for the EVO. Now make extended life batteries and a new backing.

The keys are really big in landscape, even bigger than the tp2's. You wont regret your decision.

for me, going back to tp2 would be much like going back to my exwife, grief, headache and poor performance lol
