Sensation vs g2x

I currently have the g2x and although i like the phone the tiny issues of rebooting and shutting off have been annoying to deal with at times. I love HTC but not sure if i am in love with HTC sense. Just thinking about getting rid of my G2x for sensation and wondering if it is worth it?? What would you do?

Can anything slow it down?

How about EDGE data service?? T-mobile doesn't even have 3G everywhere. I don't know what they are thinking talking about 4G.
