Default Touch Pro 2 vs. G1

I swithced phoens so I have a g1 right now, and honestly I dont think that at least for me the touchpro 2's os well be better than android, android is a little TO simple, like it doesnt allow as much customization sure its open source but who cares! even without the source code windows mobile is way more customizable, at least for now, is what most peopple say, but I dont think andorid will ever be as customizable cause the people who use it prefer siploer phones than wm phone users normally so over all what do u think is better? I say G1 100%

EditL OMG IM SO SORRY LOL I MENT TOUCH PRO 2 100000% not G1 100% lol

Because it´s design and is more buisness oriented I´ll go for TP2 definetly!!
Android OS is so young now... perhaps in the future we can see a more mature and solid OS...

XDA is about developing and is for developers. Any user that recognises that will gain the most benefit from this site


 
This is and always will be a site for developers, pure and simple. Without them we are nothing, without them there would be no reason for XDA Developers to exist; we should never ever forget that. Without them this place would not be called XDA-Developers but something else, e.g Mobile Phone User Support Services For Ungrateful Nerds.

Previous devices: HTC: Treo 650 - Excalibur - Diamond - Diamond 2 - Maple - HD2 - Rhodium - Desire Z - Desire HD - Vivid - Sensation - One V - One X - Titan II - One X+ - DNA

plus the phone itself is 100X better than the G1, I switched sims with my brother for a while so I am using a G1 its simpler than windows mobile that's for sure... too simple... lol and anyways I think that android is targeting a diffrence audiiance, and also I didnt have a data plan and it works for me, and so you dont get charged there is an app to disable data I think but I didnt get it I just dont connect to gmail or go on the web

I would say the Pro2 is better because it has WinMo preinstalled, and I'll bet that within a year, some people will take the initiative to port Android to the devices. Some of the hardware may never be fully taken advantage of (like the zoom bar, camera, etc), but the OS will probably still run well. So the way I see it, if you get the Pro2, you get both OSes, but you only get one with the G1. And I don't think I could give up Windows Mobile (I'm an addict ).

Default New to the TP2 2 wks old but.............

Hiya everyone. I have had a G1 since it came out the first day. I will admit it took a bit getting used to. However over the time I have had it I have done some mods to it. Its rooted I have had the Motorola Droid OS the Hero OS and Cyanogens OS several times. Each has its own benefits and quirks. I have yet to modify my TP2 mostly because I am skeeered of bricking it! LOL

Personally I feel that the Android OS is making strides as to becoming one of the top OS's on the market but it will have its niche. I think if you are in business then the TP2 is a great choice. But then again I have only had it for a short time.

So far so Good!

Dude, you should see someone about this, for you to diss the tp2 for a whole paragraph then edit back saying you meant to diss the G1, well, I guess I will let it slide as it is Friday, and you may be somewhat "altered".

Coming from Windows Mobile - Where is the registry edits??

LOL, look at the OP's post date. This thread was started on April 11th, 2009, and hasn't been posted to for months (until it was suddenly awoken today for no real reason). Relax man, this was months ago...
