I think this sort of thread is healthy. I don't want to come to a winmo forum and see ZERO winmo "bashing", the point of the forum is to talk about windows mobile. That can include comparisons to other non-WM phones, as long as the topic is still windows mobile. Debates on this stuff can be interesting as long as people keep it civil.

I've also been thinking about moving on to something else. I have nothing against MS products and I've been on windows PCs forever. But windows mobile 6.5 is about halfway between windows 98 and windows XP as far as "OS evolution" is concerned. You can do almost everything on it, but some stuff only works with kludges and a million little patches. And it's got this old clunky feel and it feels like it chugs compared to a modern OS.

Whereas playing with a droidX was like playing with windows 7 for the first time after hanging onto XP forever. Everything is pretty and fast and intuitive and it just works.

I do like that my phone is pimped out just the way I want it, and I don't know if an android will do that. But if I switch, I won't miss soft resetting 4-5 times a day. I'm just holding out to see how WP7 runs and what the fans can do to make it customizable/usable.

+1 to the guy who said 6 year abusive relationship, I loled hard at that because it feels very true. Every time I have to reboot I say to myself "why do I keep putting up with this?" and WM is like "come on baby I swear it won't happen again, I love you, come back to me."

I've been wanting to just get it all out and post a giant rant about my daily experience with WM6.5 on a TP2, but I know it'll probably get a lot of negative reaction on here and really what's the point... old phone, old OS, soon we'll all be moving onto something else if WP7 sucks as hard as initial tests indicate... and who knows, maybe I blow 200-400 on a new droidX and start playing with it and find I have just as many problems (but from what I've read, that is NOT the typical android experience).
