i'm going to "cry" about my refurb. if that doesn't work F it. i'll shell out some $$ for a new phone, if i can get it for around 200 each.

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

holy sl-litballs batman!!! thats too much man. a lot of people including me will have to give it a second thought rather take this blow in the back pocket. ill have to wait till i get a good deal on my usual source (local classifieds site) or see how much less a hero will hurt since i spent my upgrade on the Pre. i sold the pre already and i paid everything off so i owe ZILCH to the bank or anywhere else whooo.... so my next few payrolls are all me cuz my only financial obligation now is my sprint bill haha (i feel as free as a child, love the feeling). ill save up and buy on october after making the life changing choice of the tp2 or hero lol

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

expensive and not worth it!!

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

I love the size of the screen but that is way too much money, guess i will keep using my TP instead

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

Man for what they are gonna give a Minnor upgrade too TF3D and WM 6.1 with a bigger screen. I think i will stick with my Pro and use my 450 towards something more useful lol. My take already this is a bust just based off the price. People in the Economy right can't afford that!!!!

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

So they have 0 advertisement, a 450 out of store price, not many improvements over the old TP and they expect to sell these things? ill buy one cause ill get it for 250 instantly but thats crazy

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

yeah man that is pretty pricy, id probably call and threaten to cancel my services and tell them ive had a bad experience with them see what they will do for me then, im a try to work that customer service whaaaahahaha!!

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

see thats why we all wish we were you in that manner hahaha

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

Way too expensive! Maybe I can get a Touch Pro for a reasonable price now though. Unless D/\sh can give out some training on how to handle retentions lol.

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

Turd-mobile got it for 150.00 and we gotta pay 450.00 then wait forever to get the 100.00 rebate...no thanks, ill just wait till the tp is gone and tp2 replaces it, yes your right, thats wrong to do but damn.... 450.00 for a phone aint gonna happen for me, sorry.

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

will we be able to use this on SERO? or are they gonna make us get the simply everything plan like with the Pre??

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

Hope theres a trick to get this like the tp

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

no they are not doing that on this device and yes it can be used on sero

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

wow im disappointed! crazy price, and im not sure if i want it or if i wanna wait on the hero, but im also not happy with the possible new look of the hero..... what a shitty day! fml

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

I'll wait also hopefully back at the refurb warehouse they don't have too many TP's laying around. Thats what sucks when the turn around time for a new phone is almost less then a year.

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price **Official Word**
 

honestly guys..i dont really mind the price...it looks like a wonderful device...and the hardware seems a lot better made than the "chipping chrome" and the "sometimes working" keyboard :)...im gonna be getting two of em..so as soon as i do i expect a bad a$$ ROM to be ready :lol: jk :D...

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
 

touch pro 2... dude i just got my touch pro! and now i seen the hero and the pro 2... damn it! hey um you below.. little daisy if you find a crazy hook up let me know so i can bite ur phone lol... but yeah i like the new touch pro im not gonna lie and 450 ugh is kinda high... idk

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word

Re: Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 Price Official Word
