Dropped Epic - Went to TP2

[BenC]

I was there due to an absolute hate of the default screen keyboard. Made my call, found a buyer and then happened upon another keyboard. Since then I have only 1 complaint, the Bluetooth implementation and that is not bad enough to junk the phone. As I have mumbled before, if I knew then what I know now, I would never have purchased the Evo. The Epic would have been it. The TP2 is an excellent device and never has given me any problems. I still carry it with me.

But thats just IMHO.

With 7 home screens, there is plenty of real estate to add shortcuts for you most frequently dialed numbers.

No option to see them all at once though, which I seriously enjoyed about the EVO. It made jumping to a certain application a snap. Also I don't prefer the home screen key being swapped with the menu button. I think that far button should take you to the main page.

Push the Home key at the bottom of the phone, you will see all of your homescreens at once, using Launcher Pro.

This option was actually added to Froyo in TouchWiz as well..

stay away from anything with out a real QWERTY keyboard!!, I'm watching the industry moving to a screen only platform and I'm joining the many who do not want to type on a smooth surface, while having the convenience of a Computer in their pocket..

When you get that contact brought up you then click their name. Now it shows their phone number, now you can click the dial button. Same for the call log, you can sometimes click exactly in the call button, but it is a hell of a task and typically brings up the persons profile.

I haven't dialed that way since I had a flip phone. Why not push Contacts, scroll to the one you want, press the contact and push call? 3 easy steps.

How can you not press the 1/2" call button easily on the call log screen?

Also, as someone mentioned, you can add 1-click call widgets to any contact/number on your home screens. Looks like 20 will fit on 1 screen. Lots of options.
