Re: Im pretty dissapointed

P-Slim you aren't adding anything to this thread...and as for a phone that didnt need tweaking, etc...My old Moto Q worked great, never did any mods for it.

Did you give birth to a Pro?? Cuz it's as if I'm talking about your first born, relax.

Re: Im pretty dissapointed

this is hilarious but rudy i think youd be better off going to some forum for an instinct... to find out if itll make you happier... if youre wanting to jump from a ppc to an instinct then it may be time for you to retire from ppcs

I took mine back to BB today, and am now out of contract. I may get the Palm Pro in January, or the iPhone when it hits Costco/Sam's club after Xmas.
Yea its within the period, just got the phone this last week, I mean i haven't had problems with it yet but I would rather just stick with the Mogul until something with less bugs and better sensitive touch screen comes out. My contract is expected to terminate 11/2009 so its only one year left but I guess the contract might get reset and I might get out of the contract.

Anyone know if the HTC T8290?

http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/10/h...from-russia-w/

Seems like a good phone, can't wait to see if it will hit US Ground for Sprint, not sure when or how long would the wait be for that phone...

well if you get the phone ordered through the 1800 number you can have three days to check it out, and if you decide then you wanna keep it just refuse the phone, that way once you decide u want the instinct it'll be on your door step

Re: Im pretty dissapointed

i saw that article on the t8290 a few days ago.. pretty cool
something better is always going to come out though.. and they will probably keep having bugs at launch.. especially if they keep stacking on specs. my touch to the pro is working great though so i guess im sitting in a different boat. you were happy with your mogul but i went through a couple moguls before i finally got one that worked. they either bricked or wouldnt charge at all without adding anything extra on them and this was a common problem from what i hear. ever hear of black screen of death? after putting all my favorite progs on my working one the low memory made it annoying as all hell. im not a power user but my memory was still dangerously low. talk about slowdowns. all of them froze at least once a day. my touch pro is so much better.. it doesnt get stuck at all. throw the sharp screen and draped ui on it and you have an upgrade that makes me grin from ear to ear.
if you can handle waiting another year for the next great thing more power to you, but i cannot and will not!
