TP2 vs. MY Touch Pro

[Skism]

1.The keyboard. Will the missing keys become a problem for a frequent Word Mobile user?

I've been typing a lot through text, word, and excel and it has not been a problem for me. All the keys necessary are there. There is also a pretty good feature that allows you to hold a key (digital keyboard) and the symbol corresponding to the key can be selected without pressing function, cap, or shift.

2. The Screen. Is it really THAT much better than the Touch Pro's screen? Personally, I've never been concerned about screen size in a phone (I used to watch crazy amounts of movies on my razr).

3. No camera flash. How does that work out? Does it take a lot of getting used to?

I can't take any pictures in dark conditions. Compared to the touch pro any pictures during the day look pretty much the same, in some instances I saw that some pictures looked better... Could be circumstances. I do miss the flash, but I'd rather buy a real digital camera if I'm trying to take a lot of pictures. As far as recording, I haven't had a great experience...

4. Here's my main, biggest concern EVER with the Touch Pro 2; the missing Dpad. For me this means no more touch panel potential, limited button remaping capabilities. To make it worse, I like to play games on my phone A LOT (currently I have over 40 games on my Touch Pro 1). How bad will the lack of a Dpad hurt my gaming experience?

I have used the arrows on the arrows on the keyboard and that works out pretty good... I even think its a lot more responsive.


If you can get the phone for 350 or less I'd say do the upgrade... Its a great phone. Battery life is awesome for me and I work in an area where my phone is ALWAYS looking for service. You appreciate the bigger screen once you actually start to navigate on it... So far the best WINMO device I've had.
