palm pre .. there is no customization... at all for now

TP running WM6.1 mighty's latest release with no bugs... WM6.5 is buggy and TF3D2 is also buggy.. if u want bug free stay away from WM6.5 and tf3d2...

soon sprint will be releasing an official WM6.5,,, then the chefs can work off that to make it more stable then the 6.5 ones floating around now...

TP2 looks real nice... but will still be running off the WM6.1 platform out of the box

Switching plans is not an issue for me.. I am on the Simply Everything plan so I should be fine in that aspect.

The pre does look nice but I am not too sure about the whole "card" layout they have... Seems like I would have to do a lot of scrolling back an forth to get to apps which were open. At lease with SPB mobile I have a "Desktop" style layout where I can make links to apps and other features I use on a regular basis. The Pre's os seems stable and personnaly I never had an issue with their OS stability so I am guessing that Web OS will be very stable. Also I personally would like to have an on screen keyboard from time to time (not having to slide physical keyboard out whenever I am browsing web, txting, etc...)

The TP 2 also seems nice and migh be the phone I end up getting..... Depending on if the Pre fallls short of my expectations. My issues with the TP2 are, that ther is no flash on the back and its still winmo.

Guess this is something I will have to physically test out myself to get the best answer of pros and cons of one phone over the other.
