New Touch Pro 2 not worth upgrade, must read!

[morrowa2]

I can see how it is a questionable upgrade from TP, but for folks upgrading from 6800, do you think it is worth it? I definitely do... especially since my 6800 is on the fritz and currently has the functionality of a paperweight.

Yes, even though I've never had a 6800, I'm sure the TP2 will be better than a non-working 6800.

Personally, I'm keeping my TP.
I'm ok with the screen and the KB of the TP, I don't care that much about the improved mic and speakerphone (they work fine as is), and I would miss the D-pad.

I think it's a pretty weak "upgrade". Of course, that's just my opinion.

Its the screen!!!!! Nuff said.

Me imma get the tp2 because of the screen size and better keyboard. Just worth it for me

I didnt read every comment, but one other thing to note is that the speaker phone on the TP2 will be much improved.

Tilting screen - check
3.6 " scnree - check
larger keyboard - check
Improved speakerphone - check

Almost every complaint about it is solved.

Ram is not an issue with TP1. Sure, it could use a boost to CPU speeds and internal ROM space, but hardly a deal breaker.

1- TP1 lagged in performance cuz the CPU could barely handle the VGA screen, i cant imagine how it would perform on WVGA with older CPU and less RAM .....

2- pple complain on battery life on TP only to upgrade to a device with WORST hahaha

3- everybody says that apple brainwashes pple with a ****ty product andy et pple still want to buy this cuz they are mainly seduced by the screen... good work HTC

Im gonna open a "I Told You So" thread the minute the Rhodium section is opened =D>

Quoting HTC

Dance puppets...................DANCE!!!!!!

+1 for 8820, umma wait 2 KB and bigger screen arent good nuff,phuk dat. A combo of a good battery performance and a a 512MB RAM will be an incentive, other than that , HTC and Sprint can forget it ....
