The 6800 has an aGPS chipset in it. Not sure if Verizon unlocked in the stock ROMs though. I know they did on the TP. It's easily unlockable though from what I heard.
I don't think the TP2 has a 4G radio in it. I believe the TP and TP2 have about the same processor but I heard HTC did some magic with the memory caching making things much faster on the TP2 than the TP. But even the TP is miles ahead of the 6800 in speed and memory.
Another big plus is the screen and TP and TP2 is absolutely beautiful since the resolution is now double.
Based on what I've read, the Sprint TP2 also has a GSM SIM card / Radio for international travel.
Don't know if that makes a difference for y'all.

no, although i would love to know. i was thinking maybe we'll get it next month.
When do you think they will get this phone in the Sprint stores to try out? I was in a Sprint store last night in a mall in Detroit and the salesman was pretty upset with the fact that you could only order it online at this time. He had no idea when it would be available in the stores. Said he had at least 4 people a day stopping in asking to look at the phone. He said that At&t, verizon, and another local provider in Detroit all have it and he suggested I walk over to their stores to check it out.
Just seems strange.

But only GSM overseas. I do not see the appeal, but then again, not gonna be travelling anytime soon
gasman- I got the same story here in Jacksonville at a Sprint store. Said even those ordering online were not getting immediate shipment. Said they expected them next week sometime, but that was what they told me last week.
Meanwhile Verizon is same deal, order online with no eta shipping time. Besides, my "new every two" deal isn't active until Sunday.
Finally, I cooled off again when I heard this TP2 will not work with the new 4G. In fact, they have no phones yet that work with 4G according to Sprint. If that is true, what's the point in all the announcements about having it if nobody can use it as there are no phones????

gonna try for a touch pro 2 around christmas when I get my bonus.....I am LOVING my touch pro lately...nothing but quality.
Too bad as I was thinking of tethering.
I suppose when Verizon gets around to 4G they'll have an upgrade board for my Dell. I already upgraded the card once to get the Rev A speed and it was well worth the price. I average now 1.8 Mb/s around the country with the new board. Sometimes I get 2.3 Mb/s. It makes sling box sing!
You know I Still haven't taken any pictures... as of yet. Later on I will and post it here, right now I'm getting ready to take the Kids to see Toy Story & Toy Story 2 in 3D at 10am local time..
Ok just took this picture using the Touch Pro 2 "indoors" at my bar area.. kinda messy huh?? LOL
Pictured on the bar are:
A Brand New Pansat PM900 Motor .. (sold on craigslist today)
2 boxes from my old Sprint HTC Touch Pro (Sold today on Craigslist)
An old getto analog 19" TV mounted on a wall mount, and NFL banner purchased for Super Bowl Parties.. (hangs year round)

Well, I'll be getting a TP2 here from sprint on Friday. My keyboard on my TP stopped working and only works after a hard reset (soft won't do anything) and then onoly works for about 10 minutes.
TP2 ordered and replaced free of charge.

I haven't done my replacement yet... did you have to go into the store to do this or was it done on the phone?
