Its up to you, but I would probably wait for dual core or at least more ram. Tb looks like a nice phone but doesn't look that much of a step up from the fascinate. Also htc said only dual core phones would get the next version of sense 3.0

It is opinion true but have u even touched a TB?? just out the box without any modifications to it BLOWS the fascinate rooted with mods out the box...now the TB rooted running at 1.8 dude its not even close not even a comparison...and jsut to add to the mix all the devs that have chosen to come over to the TB and bless us with their work not even fair...but thats my opinion choose for your self..liks ive said i had the fascinate and was very disappointed with it the only thig i did like was the screen and my TB killz dat too, OH and we r about to have gingerbread stock with sense by june and even faster wit root and samsung is just gettn froyo...Its all opinion. The tb is a great phone dont get me wrong. But fascinate with superclean voodoo is super fast and it seams like it is not worth spending 250 for tb if you got a voodoo fassy. fascinate can hold its chops against these other phones.

There an app for switching between 3g and 4g in the market your girl should check it out..itll save her battery big time...it called LTE OnOff try it out da difference is very noticable i use my phone heavy txtn, gtalkn, playing games and surfing and the battery lasts me at least 10-12 hrs wit just 3g onMy girlfriend got the TB on launch day, this is what I have observed so far:
pros:
-4G is obviously blazing fast
-New version of HTC sense is flawless
-fast boot (not supported by all apps)
-solid phone, you won't smash this one
-gorilla glass screen (unlike the dinc)
-Large size makes for a pleasant user experience
-same snappy processor we are used to with the dinc and evo
Cons:
-HORRENDOUS battery life. Despite what others may tell you about it, if you are a moderate to heavy user, the battery life is absolutely terrible. She is lucky to get 4-5 hours out of it. This can somewhat be circumvented by shutting the mobile data (LTE/EVDO) off using a widget. Don't plan to play games and be on Facebook all day with this one, it simply won't happen. Also it is impossible to switch 3G or 4G off seperately so your phone will drain your battery switching between the two constantly.
-On her phone it has the same slow GPS issue as the Fascinate does now.
-Phone runs HOT. As hot as my OG droid does running a 1.1 ghz kernel.
-The phone is technically already outdated tech. Its a rebranded EVO, which has already been out for close to a year now. Newer phones will be out VERY soon if you can just hold out a bit longer.
My personal opinion? Its not for me. I need a phone that will at least last me a shift at work or a day of classes, and this phone absolutely will not unless you barely use it. It certainly isn't worth getting a phone that is so multimedia capable but can't truly harness this due to extremely poor battery life.
Stelv.....are you saying that 4g is going to cost more than 3g ? If so any idea how much difference?
