Mr Gadget… will now give you the touch pro is something to consider. the key board looks great but wondering are these company people blind? saying how much more responsive the pro2 is … the pro1 must of been a dog.as the pause between push & apprearing on pro2 screen was quite noticeable, not to mention his two or more goes at getting a tab to launch an app. but that keyboard and 3.6 screen is worth considering as with most htc efforts there are quite a few on xda etc fixing lag issues quite quickly (as long as you do not mind a custom rom)
