Cheers Vin! Your 6.5.x ROM builds have made my TP2 incredibly solid and loaded with eye candy for many months now. Thanks so much again!
In regard to strong and weak points of each OS, the fully integrated speech to text with Android is a great feature, and something I'd like to see integrated in WM or at least in the forthcoming WP OS. That said, bing and Tellme have been somewhat of a start, but again full integration would be fantastic.
One of the missing Android features that's been major deal breaker for me, was the lack of blue-tooth voice dialing directly from the headset. Thankfully, this issue has just recently been fixed with the Froyo release. Nonetheless, if your Android phone does not have Froyo yet. It's still missing a major phone feature that's been available for years on other platforms. Moreover, the lack of this ability has limited Android's use as an actual phone for myself and many others, as hands free only phone use is the law while driving here.
One thing that I really miss with the capacitive touch only iPhone and Android type screens verses the TP2 and older WM phones, is the ability to use a stylus to write notes, work on diagrams or sketches, get signatures for invoices easily, or just use a finger nail to select something. Plus, it's just nice to have the option to use an accurate down to the pixel stylus instead of having to finger the screen all the time.
As far as my business use goes, the TP2 has no equal yet, largely due to it's keyboard, as well as it's exchange, office, and mobile invoice software integration. For personal use, I think WM, iOS, and Android are all fairly equal when each is unlocked, loaded with apps, and optimized. With regard to speed, obviously the EVO or HD2 or anything with double the processing power and ram outperforms the TP2 or Diamond or older iPhones.
As far as which OS is best, heck, I enjoy modifying my iPhones once jailbroken almost as much as WM when unlocked, and I'm sure I will enjoy tweaking Android as much once rooted. In accordance with full disclosure, my experience with Android is limited to testing out the Droid for a few weeks, the EVO recently for the weekend, and loading 2.1 on my Diamond, TP2, as well as loading Froyo on my old iPhone 3G. My bottom line is that all our current mobile platforms have pluses and minuses, and all have plenty of room for improvement. In turn, it's really up to each user to customize each OS and UI for their specific needs. In that respect, I have really appreciated the great work done through the years by members here at ppcgeeks and over at xda. Without them, WM would suck, as Vin put it so succinctly. IMHO, everyone should just enjoy what they have to the max, be thankful we have many options and great sites to help us modify our systems, and try not to be full of hate or envy.
Best to all,
R
