A loving shame.

Hi all. Because of verizon plan complications I had no choice but to shut down my Imagio and pick a new phone. Being a bit low on cash, I decided to go with the BOGO sale they had on Motorola Droids. Me and my bro got them.

I have next to...well no experience with android but I was excited to try it out.

Oh. My. Gracious.

I'm blown away by all you can do on android. I love the games, the ease of use, and the adamant snappiness. Coming from Winmo, (which I love too. It's complicated. XD) I thought I was taking a dip in cold water, but man I see new horizons. Finally at the end of the night of the "droid party" at my house, I found myself sing Ruben Studdards "Flying with out Wings" to my Droid.

The "loving shame" is that for so long I have had such a love for my Imagio and I thought the transition would be more difficult. My low unlearned and unprecedented opinion of the Android OS has turned into the "crow" I will now have for dinner.

Hello Android Forum. Nice to meet you...

Re: A loving shame.

My Droid gets here in less than a week. My Imagio's not talking to me anymore. She's being difficult. Sorry WinMo, but until you get your act together and spit out about 10000 more apps than you've got now, I'm jumping ship. Here I come Froyo, flash, OC, widgets, etc...

Re: A loving shame.

I, too, came from an Imagio to a Droid. Now I can't imagine going back to WinMo. I don't miss daily reboots, and applications that don't work.

Re: A loving shame.

Oh man, I had the XV6900, HTC Touch Pro, HTC Diamond, and the Omnia. I can't believe I dealt with all the issues those winmo phones had, particularly the constant butt dialing.

Re: A loving shame.

I bought a Droid on eBay a few weeks ago and feel the same way. Android is just so much more modern and built for the needs of today - I just picked up a WM2002 PDA and was surprised how little had changed in WinMo in the eight years that separated it and WM6.5! The Droid is so much faster and more responsive, not to mention endless customizability and the ease of downloading third party programs (and there's lots to choose from unlike WM). Night and day difference and I'm super satisfied.

Re: A loving shame.

I previously owned an HTC Imagio and Eris. Both gave me a lot problems. Verizon just switched my Erid for a Moto Droid and I LOVE this phone! It is so much better and I do not think I will ever purchase an HTC phone again.
