The Touch Pro 2 is a decent phone, but amazingly overpriced. Give it a few weeks and I'm sure it'll drop in price, probably about $150. Keep in mind that even though HTC has done a great job with TouchFLO, it's still Windows Mobile underneath it all.
The Pre is a solid device, as is the Tour, but it really depends how you're going to use the phone. If you want a more entertainment-centric experience, go with the Pre. If you want a more businessy device, go with the Tour.
Lastly, the person with the Treo 800w, the problems with that device are more than likely problems with Windows Mobile, not the device itself. Palm's WebOS is MUCH more stable than WinMo.
Lastly, Verizon will likely get the Pre around Christmas, and Sprint will probably be getting the Pixi, which is a lower-end version of the Pre around the same time.
