WMExperts have put up their impression of their first 24 hours with the Sprint Touch Pro, and its safe to say the like it.

After playing with it and delving deep into the Touch Pro for the last 24 hours, I am in awe of some really cool new features, impressed with others, and have developed my wish list that would have made it a perfect phone. I believe that the few improvement wishes are greatly overshadowed by the positive features the Sprint Touch Pro has to offer.

So, after 24 hours of using the Touch Pro, I am overall very impressed with it. It has a lot of memory, and is fully loaded with accessories out of the box, built solidly, has a VGA screen, and is motion sensitive. It appears responsive and comes with one of the best selections of preinstalled software titles I have seen in a long time.

I am anxious now to take the Touch Pro on the road and customize it, and to push it to its limits. So after a very positive first 24 hours with the Touch Pro, we will post a full review of what we think of the phone again in another 3 to 4 weeks from now!
