I just yesterday got an Evo. I am coming from a TP2 with the latest energy ROM (you rock dude) with 6.5. I loved my TP2. I've had it since the first day it released at sprint. I Never had 1 issue with WM or the hardware. I love how easy it was to hack (android is scaring me a bit with all the steps and command prompts). For me it was stable, responsive (thanks HTC) and did everything I wanted it to do.
I own my own biz and work alot with PDF's. So far wm wins hands down there. Office mobile, I love you and a WM win all the way around. I have multiple e-mail that are filtered to a hotmail account and then separated automatically into corresponding folders. With the windows live plugin I can use the sense tab to check ALL my folders not just the inbox. So again wm wins. Apps... Sorry wm droid all the way. I also never had an issue with using a stylus I miss it in fact, I find my self always miss pressing my evo. I have to pay for a GOOD remote desktop software that comes standard on wm. I did not have to hack my TP2 (just a few reg edits) to hotspot my phone eighter.
I don't know yet though, I will give droid a chance (thank you 30 day return policy) but I think I will be stickin with a TP2 for a while cause wm7 looks like just an app happy kids toy.
If I wasn's such a sprint and CDMA fan I would have went to T-Mobile and got an HD2 (gsm is horrible up here in NH). The only reason I upgraded was because I have had the phone for 2 or 3 years. It was getting physically tired. I could have gotten a new one for $100 after a mail in, on Ebay for $50 or used my insurance. But I wanted to give android a chance to impress I guess.
So to stay on topic... That would be awesome to have wm on the EVO but everybody is right. WM7 is here so wm6.x.x will have NO more support a year from now from Billy Gates. Legal issues and... "liability" (I hate that word
). It might work for some of us but that number is falling everyday. So, I wish, you wish, even he my wish, however, everybody else jumped the train and caught the android train.
P.S. Again I've only had this phone for 12 hours so far (8 of those I was asleep). So if anybody has a fix for any issues I pointed out please PLEASE post or PM.
