Next Mobile OS?

I am frustrated by the new mobile OS's, mainly because none of the ones I've used have had the basic feature set that my windows mobile 6.5 tp2 has.

iOS - not a big fan of apple and I'm not switching to AT&T

Blackberry - I hate how the email is handled, and there aren't that many touch screen options.

Andriod - I'mn dual booting it right now and apart for the number of apps I don't care for it. It lacks the basic functions That i use all the time in winmo.

Windows 7 - han't used it but it seems vastly different than 6.5


right now the features i use the most on my winmo phone are:

tethering via usb, Bluetooth or wifi depending on the situation, all for no extra fee or extra apps* (wifi is from htc)

Spreadsheets, I use excel on my phone to keep track of gas purchases I don't want to have to loose or re-enter all that data.

E-mail, I like hows it's nicely separated by account and has exchange support that i use with my school's email system.

Calendar, again it's exchange support, i enter it on the phone or computer and volia it gets updated to tinehe other no manual syncing or extra programs needed

Contacts, see calendar

web browsing - opera does everything fine no gripes


So when the time rolls around and i can get a new phone I have no clue what direction I am headed in the only time I boot andriod on my phone now is if i want to show off dual booting other than that it's just taking up space :/

suggestions? Honestly I just want a faster winmo 6.5 phone
