Windows mobile 6.5 and stupid microsoft.

Microsoft REALLY screwed themselves over with windows mobile 6.5. What people wanted was a direct change to the way it works and looks. I think if they had released it with the Start button and such at the bottom of the screen it would have looked much better in the eyes of the reviewers. I REALLY like the start button on the bottom like in some of the later 6.5 builds I ran on my touch pro. People didn't want the same old windows mobile look since PPC 2002, they want something different.

Re: Windows mobile 6.5 and stupid microsoft.

How do you know what everyone wants? I'm perfectly happy and knew all along that 6.5 was just a more refined OS than before. Especially since I've been using it for months on the TP. Anyway let's not have a ton of threads on this, there's already a good one here:
