Absolutely nothing impressive because all it was... was a phone, mp3 player, pic viewer and text messager... it didnt feel like windows, didnt look like windows, didnt act like windows... and will some of the speed slow down after apps are installed yup... is it buggy straight outta the box... yup. I think the first replier was right... if you look at it for what it is... right now, ppl are buying it bc its Microsoft... not bc of anything it can do better than anyone else because it doesnt DO a single thing right now. Defintely has potential... but it took at least 5 years before to get ce to wm5 and at least another 3 to get to 6.5. I accept the fact that MS abandoned us. Them starting over... to me, just seems like same ol MS. I guess the subject of my post has been answered. Buy WP7 now and get basic phone tools with zero apps available and more of an inconvenience to accomplish simple tasks... or get a Touch Pro 2 and just use it til they actual have a functioning, integrated piece of software. Cant even pull up your contacts from your phone app... wow!

You see DP... You are not alone... 6.5 works fine for alot of us.
Microsoft has never cared about us... They haven't abandoned us. All they care about is their bottom line.. . And if you think any other OS cares about you... You're wrong.
If you are not in their target audience... Or if you don't like it... Then it's not for you.
Everyone has a choice... Hell... We have MANY choices... It's like asking why guys prefer redheads... Or blondes or brunettes or oriental girls or european girls... It really doesn't matter why... We just do. Hell some guys preffer guys. I can't begin to imagine WHY... But they do... And good for THEM!. We all get to choose what we like and that's the beauty... There are phones and plans that fit almost everyone. Get the phone you like and others will get theirs.
I think it's that easy. And I'm glad it is.
