I'd say HTC since that's what I'm familiar with but I also know how mine sucks.

I find the battery issues odd. I have a droid tablet, and I can literally watch movies and surf the net with it all day, and still have juice left over to carry through my morning "de-sludging".

Then again, it's a Toshiba Thrive. It's as thick as three Ipads.

Tablets don't usually have radios and have room for huge batteries.

I'm not going to pretend to know what that means. I just know mine doesn't work more often than it works. And I prefer wi-fi whenever possible.

Your phone comes with something that connects to Sprint 4G. It was the 1st commercial something available. It sucks and is a battery hog. T-mobile doesn't use that something. They have a tried and true something that is better and consumes much less battery.

Hmm. Understood. F Sprint. And now that they are dumping their unlimited data (not that I use much) I'm done. They won't grandfather in existing customers either.

Are they stupid? Unlimited was the only thing keeping their ass afloat.
