We need to thank Apple for at last making a much needed revolution in the phone market to make it all-in-one solutions. I for myself have an HTC, I love the device and I hate WM which is totally un-userfriendly though agree totally editable vs Iphone. Then if I just look at the basic...iphone has the best screen (HTC and all other devices have not matched)...it's the best soft/hardware integration to be fast and precise...and integrates the best surfing and music softwares out there...then that probably represents 80% of everybody's time on a PDA...if it wasn't for my work emails needing WM...I would have an iphone in my pocket...unless other brands start finally getting serious about have an excellent device both inside and outside without trying to flog quantity on the market that are not perfect. This is just version 2 for the iphone where other devices are at version 10 or 15....I can only guess their perfect product will be at n°3 or 4 version....like they did with the ipods..which I struggle now to find any flaws.

Mostly I think one of WinMo's shortcomings is that by default it's not a very user friendly environment. I'll conceed that 6.5's addition of the honey comb and scrolling "zune-like" today screen shows that they're working on it. But like I said, with things like HTC's TouchFlo3D and many others, it's not such a big deal. Also, they need to integrate with Zune somehow. They have Windows Live Mobile already, which is awesome. But then you really won't need a Zune after that I guess ;) Whoops! Forgot the cons:

So I give it credit for testing the waters and making it look natural right from the start. But I love my HTC Touch Pro. The WinMo platform just has so much more going for it. Here's my pros and cons on WinMo: Pro *with manufacturers like HTC making their own successful today screen UI it shows that WinMo can be anything BUT WinMo when you're using it. it doesn't HAVE to look like Windows. *it's got the benefit of being more wide spread than the apple-only mac os x that's in the iPhone. uniformity will restrict iPhone from really changing, whereas WinMo can go anywhere...be anything. *the hardware that runs WinMo phones is already getting more sophisticated. things gps and bluetooth are pretty much standard, whereas iPhone's hardware will remain the same (memory, processor) The iPhone is really in a class of its own.

Mon, 23 Mar 2009 10:51:19 +0000 http://www.saijogeorge.com/?p=219#comment-185 Ok, I can admit that the iPhone out matches other cellular devices in the app category...HOWEVER, now-a-days...every god damn phone has MMS messaging...Few has the video sending capabilities and practically every phone out in the market that's been recently created has picture messaging... I'm into new techs, however, if they lack one SIMPLE action, they whole thing just sucks...HOW would you like it if they made a new Halo game...and they didn't bother to implement the sword, hammer, or sniper into the game? HMM wouldnt that turn away so many buyers? Or if your more of an RPG gamer...how would you like it if there's a NEW FF game that can be beaten in under a few hours and theres not much side quest and what not? Or maybe your a car type of person...FOrd, GMC, Nissan, whatever the make...they created a new line of sport, sedan, convertibles, etc. They got all this features, BUT it only goes 70mph...Like thats its top speed...and it lacks the PRESENT features like onstar and high crash ratings... Wouldnt those small yet VERY impactful things definitely turn you away?? Honestly, if they came out with a new iphone with MMS, but it lacks in the number of apps or features it has...It wouldnt be worth buying...atleast not to me... When it comes to small things like voice dialing/MMS, and a badass phone like the iPhone lacks it...THERE IS ABSOLUTELY no fucking reason for it not to have it. None. I stand by every word you just read, because I personally find that bullshit and that is where Apple fails in the market. Windows Mobile 7 will surely out sell its competitors when it is released...Apple will have to fix those cons it currently has and add more better features to really come out on top. Which I highly doubt!

It definitely makes the iPhone look like a fifth grade kids' passtime toy!! And as for Windows mobile, I agree that it has it's flaws, so does the iPhone. But it is much more flexible [work, multimedia, passtime] and powerful. The Touch HD is a far superior product. It definitely makes the iPhone look like a fifth grade kids’ passtime toy!!

Not only because the Windows Mobile even though is not the best is very stable, but too because I use Windows based PC. I use a Pocket PC since 2003. Very used to. My iPhone was with me for 4 months, sold it then. The screen is beautifull, but the HD is incredible, just incredible, a piece of paper with light. The battery and lack to write with anything in the screen but a finger is.... I’ve got the HD.
