I've been using WM for quite a few years. Over that time it hasn't seemed to change much, a few improvements here and there but nothing major, nothing that provided that "wow" moment. I switched to the iphone a few months ago but that relationship only lasted a short time. A nice phone, but, frankly, really boring and worse, running on a real crap network.

I came back to wm via the Omnia but WM 6, the Omnia and Touchwiz were a marriage from gadget hell and that phone lasted exactly one week. I'm now running an Imagio. Nice phone but hampered by WM although I will say that 6.5 is an improvement (not much of one but an improvement) and I like the phone overall. My big complaints are the ones that come from WM. Sometimes slow and very laggy and having to constantly dump the memory to gain some back and get back to a decent speed.

I'm hoping that MS will get WinMo 7 right. I will hold off until then, but I have to admit that I've begun looking at Android. The problem is that Android is still too much in its infancy and I don't think its even close to being ready for prime time in a business use world. I rely on contacts and calendaring and syncing on my phone so that's a major priority.

By the time WM 7 comes out I think we'll be seeing another iteration of Android and have some better options. At that point, MS needs to have hit a winner or I will have to be seriously looking at other options.
