Overall its pretty nice with the HTC TouchFlo but I am finding its underwheling & hard to navigate.

I bring the TP2 into the mix as I think its going back. i was thinking of trying a blackberry but I am not excited about that prospect though I think it will be more stable than Winmo.

So with that being said, are you missing WM6 less & less?

One other thing, is there such a thing as a winmo emulator on android? I have a application (its actually a wm2003 app) that is keeping me stuck on WM at this point. I am definately thinking of trying this one out though.

I was wondering about how you like it after another week or two. Your perspective is just about perfect in terms of device similarity.

Thanks,

I would look and see if there is an app that is comparable on android. At this point there is no emulator on Android for Winmo. I don't need a d-pad and I find myself loving the trackball for any action I needed the dpad for!

As far as WM6, I loved the ability to customize, but we will have that back once the Hero is rooted. So yes, I miss WM6 less every day! The form factor of the KB up front on the Treo's is nice, but this is a very intuitive soft KB on the Hero and it seems to get the job done for me pretty well!

I love the phone and I will be keeping it over the moment because it is much smaller and I hear the pad up front instead of the trackball is hard to work with. I won't be going back to WM unless 7 is a game changer because everyone is pushing Android and IMHO it is already better than WM6.5.
