Re: Did you switch from WM? What do you think?

I was a wm user for 4 years and the switch had ups and downs. downside: I had to purchase a program called gsyncit to sync to outlook. does a fantastic job. The OS is not as configurable as WM.

On the flip side Android is stable as hell in comparison. No more battery pulls/soft reset. If you like lots of configs, I recommend buying tasker. You'll be more complete than wm could ever dream of with that app. Totally worth the 7 bux, and gsync was a must even for 20.

with those apps paid for, you're phone is just as compatible as wm, but now for the positives. FAST.... no more laggy interface. Did I mention fast? right, a lot faster than WM. The app market is huge, not iphone huge, but still huge in its own respect. Android is a fast and reliable OS, that WM can only dream to be. It's like a mixture between reliability and speed of iphone, with customizations of WM. Best of both worlds.

I dont miss the hard keyboard at all. Swype works very well, and the capacitive screen is about as good as the iphone's. I can type reasonably fast with this thing. The navigation voice action works much much better than it did on the TP2 with bing.
