Back in April I was excited about getting an HTC Pro2<\/a>. True to VZW’s modus operandi, they have drug their feet and here it is 4 months later and we do not even have a release date. Not a week goes by that I don’t think about dropping VZW and going to Sprint.<\/p>\n

I am now in “Pre” mode. I am liking what I am hearing from current Palm Pre<\/a> users and I am thinking about dropping <gasp!> Windows Mobile and heading to WebOS. Something new, something fresh!! With the earliest VZW can release the Pre being January, can I wait 5 months? I guess it depends on whether my current phone, xv6800<\/a>, can last another 5 months.<\/p>\n

… about the only other thing that might cause me to jump on a non-Pre phone will be if the Android phone VZW is supposed to be releasing Sept\/Oct peeks my interest. Right now I do not like the look of the Moto Sholes<\/a>.<\/p>\n
