Re: Sprint Touch Pro or Verizon XV6850
I'm in the same boat as you however I just renewed my NE2 a few months ago
![]() I think it all will come down to your personal preference. Right now I'm deciding to go with VZW's TP because of the larger keyboard and design (I actually like the VZW design better than the Sprint version). I've also decided to go this route because I won't have to fiddle around too much to get the device to work the way I want - going through the long process to make the Sprint one work on VZW's network would save me some money but I'd rather have a product that VZW will support fully (so I can possibly return it if need be or get a replacement). I can deal with the crippled RAM through tweaks and the locked GPS I'm just hoping will get unlocked in the near future (not an immediate need for me either, just something nice to have). I might even disabled TF3D all together and use my own today screen applications that are more efficient for using it as a PDA |

Re: Sprint Touch Pro or Verizon XV6850
I can tell you this... my Sprint TP cost me about $20 more on ebay than a VZW TP would (including renewing at the 2yr contract price, plus $50 NE2 discount, plus $70 mail in rebate).
Yeah, they're ripping you off that bad. |

you need to search elsewhere considering there are so many TPs out for less than what you paid! you got ripped though I got a sprint TP and put it on vzw. Never looked back |

That sounds far from a ripoff, he paid a really good price for an unlocked phone (which is what I'm assuming). Let's stop talking about switching to Sprint, for many of us that is not an option

When I decided to try a TouchPro, switching back to Sprint never even crossed my mind. I bought a Sprint TP & activated it on my vz account & everything works super. If I had warranty concerns, I would buy a vz TouchPro in an instant however. I could easily get used to the KB & the free memory is still double what my Titan has had for the last year (& that ran just fine as soon as I loaded nueROM3) ~John |

Re: Sprint Touch Pro or Verizon XV6850
I almost bought the Sprint version with the intention of activating it on VZW, but I've bought the Verizon version instead for the following reasons:
1. I'm not leaving VZW network. No way. 2. After ne2 and corp. discount I paid $269 for the VZW tp. 3. I want warranty and full insurance on this sucker. 4. While I will flash a rom to it and tweak it for speed and to free up some ram, I don't want to have to do a bunch of work just to get it working. 5. I am confident that the "crippled" phone will still meet all my needs once I have it tweaked to how I want it and with a clean rom. |

Re: Sprint Touch Pro or Verizon XV6850
Well, you could just switch to Sprint and probably get a better rate (unless you're on a VZW corporate plan or something).
Plus you'd get the phone at a better deal.
