Actually most (90%) of the country is 3G covered so 3G speeds up to 1.8Mb/s are pretty normal. Funny thing is that even though I work for mobile operator, we don't have blazing speeds in the office - I just made a test here and I get 1.3Mb/s and the TP2 shows 3G no HSDPA, but we are still upgrading the network to HSDPA. At home it's another story. I live in an old house with thick stone walls and the most I get there is EDGE, but that's not network or device problem it's the walls.

Hodgesmt - glad to hear that you like the TP2 as well. I agree that it is very, very solid out of the box. Aside from loading my favorite apps onto it, I can't really thing of any hackers... erm, I mean adjustments :-) I made to it. I just works well. The display is fantastic and really makes the device a joy to use in my opinion... that and as I said, I think the keyboard is fantastic.

I purchased one and was going to give my wife my xv6800, but after using it for 2 days we decided to get her one too. All previous ppc phones I have had I had to tinker with to get to work the way I wanted it. But stock out of the box this device just worked. Ebooks look nice on VGA and touch flo is smooth. I put Zagg full cover on mine, and on my wife's I put a boxwave clear with a clear shell from nakedcellphone. She likes to put hers in her purse, I use a holster. I don't want to hurt these beautiful devices! Glad I skipped the vzw gimped touch pro 1! I have to say that this touch pro 2 is the best thing since sliced bread.

Yes the keyboard is just great, it’s one of the main reasons I wanted Pro2.

Yes it's bigger and heavier than my old HTC Diamond, but the bigger screen and excellent keyboard make up for that easily. I have mine (company issued) for about two weeks now and I still love it.
