Re: WinMo sucks

What makes Windows Mobile so great is also its downfall. Because it is so customizable it allows the introduction of bad code, improper settings, drivers, roms etc. Windows Mobile is a laptop in a phone body and is subject to the downfalls of any proper computer.

If you want something that doesn't crash then get something that you can't tweak. The alternative is to understand that any change you make or program you install has the ability to hurt the reliability of the OS.

I have been with Windows Mobile since my IPAQ 1915 back in 2004 and have had 5 models since. I can honestly tell you that I have only experienced a crash once on a stock device. Every other crash, and there have not been many in 4 years, can be directly attributed to buggy software or a bad registry setting.
