Front Cam and Keyboard, yes, also the Fuze has an extra hardware button (PTT) which luckily can be remapped and then comes in very handy for example as button for a task manager (short press) and to activate the camera (long press).
uhh... more importantly is that the fuze is triband 3G (850/1900/2100) while the unlocked touch pro is only dual band (900/1900). so the unlocked unbranded version will not work on at&t's 3G network. if you have tmobile, it wont make a difference. please search next time, this question has been asked many times before
what is the "HTC Fuze"? Just ATT's name for the Touch Pro?

Correct. There is a just a few modifications between them. Such as the FUZE not having a forward facing camera, and the keyboard layout is different.
Switching to ATT?
Ahh darn, that is one of my wants, the front-facing camera. Can you buy a version that will work with ATT that has that camera? I am thinking about switching from Verizon to ATT, and want to take a step up from the 6800 that I currently have.
If only the HTC Touch HD had a slideout keyboard.
There are my requirements...
-Runs Windows Mobile 6+
-At least 256M RAM (not ROM)
-Supports TomTom (via aGPS or true GPS)
-Have a full slideout keyboard
-Forward-facing camera (not required, but greatly desired)
Does ATT allow using your phone as a modem? Like teathered over ActiveSync and using Internet Sharing? I do this all the time on my XV6800 on Verizon and I never get extra charges for it.
Thanks,
Actually, they both have rear facing cameras, the fuze keyboard is different and the Fuze is GSM. The Verizon and Sprint Touch Pros are CDMA.

By "rear" facing, you mean on the front of the camera, facing the user right?
On the ATT site, it shows they put the ATT logo where the Camera should be, and in all the photos of the used or refub Fuze's being sold online, there is no front camera for the "ATT" specific labeled ones. So which is it?

... no... as you are looking at the screen the camera faces away....to the rear on the phone.
why do u want a front facing camera? none of the carriers support true video calling anyway so who cares??
i have the fuze
once you put a custom rom on you should be in love
verizones version of the touch pro is absoloute crap
TP2 will be ok

how is the CDMA/Verizon version "crap"? It is identical hardware as the Fuze. In fact, the CDMA version has two cameras (front and back), the ATT Fuze has only one, so if anything the Fuze is worse, but both are identical chips, processors, ram, boards, etc...just different communication chips is all, which has no effect on processing power or speed, etc...
How is the CDMA version any different? (except for having a mroe reliable network protocol)
also - i want a forward facing camera for 2 reasons. 1) because that is the way HTC made it, and it is not ATT's job to request a different hardware setup that is more constricted, and 2) um duh...here's why - LINK: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/windowsmobile/
You need a forward facing phone for video conferencing (supported with unlimited data plans) whiehc everyone pretty much has these days.
Actually, Verizon cripples the hell out of their product. Everything on verzion will always be worse because of this. here...
Verizon's version of the HTC Touch Pro is crippled right out of the box. Locked GPS, much less RAM and no YouTube app. TouchFlow 3D eats up too much of the meager RAM. With tweaks, it is a decent device (excellent call quality), but Verizon gets no points for crippling a potentially amazing piece of hardware. Go with Sprint or AT&T if you don't need the Verizon network.
here is the proof...

go with the fuze or the touch pro sprint
And here is a complete list of each device and its differences... tisk tisk verizon...192 mb of ram
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/htc-...ouch-pro-vs-t-s-fuze-vs-verizon-s-xv6850.html
yeah so just the ram is different. everyone here unlocks and uses custom roms/radios, so the GPS and youtube app missing are no big deal since you can fix it in seconds. i think im gonna stay with verizon, but get a Sprint touch pro and use it with vzw
thanks!
Hi All,
I just had a discussion with a colleague that owns a Bell Touch Pro (which is CDMA). We where discussing how much we loved the phone, and i mentioned how much I hated the GPS lag.
Like myself he owned a Tytn II prior to his Touch Pro, and I was surprised to hear from him he didn't notice a difference. He surmised that since the GPS chip is different on the CDMA version of the phone, it's probably just an issue with the GSM version.
I did some further research and can say that he's at the very least correct about the chip being different: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=1472&id2=1306&id3=1564&id4=1362&id5=1559&id6=1363&id7=1320&id8=1547
Anyone know if there's some truth to this? To the Sprint / Bell users out there, have you noticed GPS lag on your device?
Does anybody know what's wrong with all this programs?
I had a few years ago a PPC6800 and first time when AGEphone Mobile was on the market I has so happy ...my SIP provider ZAPMOBILE from Romania was working so perfect in USA , clear signal over the SPRINT Data plan and Wifi.
After 6 month I update to mogul , The touch and now I have the Touch Pro.
As far as I upgrade my phones , the VOIP programs like AGEphone Mobile 2.76 and skype was working worse , especial with choppy audio signal , big problems . I spoke to the AEGphone company and they said is my phone.
It can be true ??? Also does someone know the best ROM for HTC Touch Pro compatible VOIP over the wifi and 3G ? Thank you
