New Touch Pro 2 not worth upgrade, must read!

[BRIVERS73]

Once the TP2 comes out it'll be interesting to see how many people (IF ANY) who said they weren't getting the TP2 actually end up with it. Im getting a TP2 cause I need something to keep me busy until the TP3 comes out!

I'm gonna hold true to what blasphemous and mr8820 state. I'm gonna go ahead and wait for the next rendition. WiMax soon to be available, WinMo7 may need different hardware specs. Bigger screen is sexy, I like the new keyboard size, just not enough for me to upgrade. Now, if my phone takes a puke (knock on wood, only 1 replacement so far) and they give me a TP2 then I had no choice but to upsell 1 of my buddies for 1 of theirs (TP1) and cash! LOL. We'll see what happens.

Don't forget the bigger screen (more pixels to draw) will require more processing / graphics power in which the Touch Pro 2 does NOT have. In other words, expect more lag / sluggishness.

Robodude is absolutely right....More screen=more processor usage...they need to fix battery issues and overheating before I change my perfectly fine TP1.....

they did fix the battery issues...did you read the BGR on the TP2? said that they got considerable more battery life than the TP...plus it comes with a 1500ma battery instead of 1300...

pocketnow did a side by side comparison and the TP2 had worse battery even with a bigger one due to more processing sucked from the WVGA screen

None of this really matters because people are either going to get the phone or not, lol...

true that! the only way to teach htc a lesson is to boycott....anyone else with me!

im going to upgrade for 1 reason...im so sick of getting headaches from sqinting at this screen. does anyone else have that happen?

Hopefully Sprint will let me swap for a TP2 4 months after it comes out. I have returned 3 Touch Pro because the keyboard stopped working and 2 others because of the Rainbow square on the screen. I'm tired of going to the Sprint store waiting for them to ship a new phone for me. I have bad luck with the Pro 1. That alone is a good reason for me to get the TP2
