ONE opinion on TouchPro1 vs. TouchPro2. Chime in!

At times I seem to forget that holding the TP2 won't be as convenient as holding the TP1, for obvious reasons. But what's your opinion on holding a device that's larger than what we're used to? I think it will take some time to get comfortable with considering this will be quite a hefty change. Your turn!

well we really wont know for sure until its release but personally i think it will take some getting used to but will be fine. before i got my tp i had a palm 650 which was a freakin tank looking back on it so the tp2 should be fine

Man, I can't wait to hold a TP2 in my hand(& activate it on Verizon)

I want that screen, I get incredibly jealous evertime I use my Ipod Touch with its awesome screen (I tether it to my TP with WMWifirouter) & would give ANTHING to transplant that screen to my TP.............

personally, the bigger screen isn't going to do it for me.
declining rom support might though...

I would say it takes a week before it feels right in my hand like most phones I get. I myself personally welcome the some what bigger size. I'm sure its gonna feel right at home in my big hands

I had a helio ocean before my tp... it was taller, wider, thicker, and heavier... and completely less capable. The switch up was a welcome one. while I would probably be happier with a touch pro 2, the screen alone won't get me to switch... If I stop seeing updated software then I probably will.

What I am really hoping for is that Sprint will stop stocking the Touch Pro and mine will break itself (as the past 6 have) and they will tell me they will trade me up to a TP2, as the mogul owners have been able to... I can wish, right?

just hold a mogul... obviously the looks/specs arent TP2 but the size and weight i bet is close.. a moguls way bigger than the TP1, and its no big deal when i shift between the 2 of em...

If the camera software is better, I'm in. I hate how long it takes to take a picture other than in very bright settings. I know there are some hacks but They don't work that well. my wifes 3gs just crushes the tp's camera.

i personally would LOVE a larger device. i cannot understand why they keep making the damn things smaller & smaller, especially phones that focus on media. i will probably jump on the tp2 bandwagon when my next upgrade comes along. sooner if i can afford it.
