I have sprint T700p and want to get rid of it for the sprint 6700. Need advice please

hey guys I am new to this site but I have to ask you a few questions and opinions about the ppc. Your likes and dislikes. I was a previous Vzw 700w (great device) owner but now I have the the sprint 700p. The only reason I tryed the 700p was because alot of people hyped the 700p up on the treo central boards and verizon data was too high. I was new to the palm os game and I made the biggest mistake buying one. The Os is so outdated and plain. I really like the WM os and I am now thinking about get the ppc6700 for sprint. I have been doing a little bit of research and now I see how powerfull this device is. I never knew the processor was 416mhz compared to the treos 312mhz. I also seen the display is better on the ppc with 240x320 compared to the 240x240. This thing is packed with built in wifi,mini sd and much more.The treo screen is much smaller than the ppc which can be a plain to get used to. I also want to know how long does it take the ppc to change over screens when you slide out the keyboard. What are the downfall that the ppc cant do that the treo can. I have also heard that you cant do picture messaging with the ppc 6700.I dont know if its true or not but I would like to know. It wouldn't be a problem for me because I would use outlook to send my pictures.Please guys help the newbie out with some answers. If any of you guys that might know someone wanting a mint 700p you can tell them mine is going on ebay tonight. Would sprint also allow me to change phones when I get my 700p. I plan on buying on off ebay brand new for $450.00

1. With the new ROM, switching to landscape mode when pulling out the keyboard is fast. (There was a hack to speed it up on the old ROM, but no need for that with the new ROM)
2. Downfalls compaired to the Treo700p? Well I haven't found a single downfall. I guess the only *possible* issue would be if you'd paid for a bunch of palm software. But there is sooo much more WM software, and a lot more freeware, so this really shouldnt be a downfall either. So I guess no downfall.
3. Picture messaging - This IS indeed possible with the ppc6700. There is a way to acomplish this. Verizon's version of this phone has a picture mail program, and there is a way you can install it and use it on the Sprint version of the 6700. I've done this myself and it works flawlessly. You'll want to be sure you're account is setup properly so you don't get charged extra for using the sprint picturemail server.
4. Yes, Sprint will allow you to switch phones.

How long have you had your Treo? Maybe if you haven't had it that long, you can tell them you're unsatisfied with the device and return/exchange it for the 6700.
