I am an Alltel customer and have not had any support for upgrading WM6.1 at all. That is until I discovered how to flash new ROM's and a whole new world opened up for me.

I was at first excited for the WM7 news but a big decision maker for myself is not being able to carry over the hundreds of dollars I have spent on 3rd party apps to the new devices. They are programs I have enjoyed for years and not being able to keep the products I have purchased specifically for Windows Mobile is quite a turn down for me.

Other platforms just have not offered the power use that Windows Mobile has offered and it seems that, at least for now, Windows Mobile will no longer be moving in that direction.

I was not even considering changing platforms but due to this change I may consider looking at Android or others. Sad to say the least however changing markets mean changing business practices. Oh well eh?
