Re: Brutally Honest 1st Impressions - Epic Fail

Exactly. I'm not a WinMo hater. I've used Windows CE/Pocket PC devices forever. I always preferred them to Palm for their power. But when they got put into phones the glaring problems of battery life and speed suddenly made my phone work less efficiently. The HTC Touch Pro, believe it or not, is one of my favorite phones ever. Maybe my favorite phone ever as I love the form factor and I really do like WinMo when it's all said and done. I just wish the phone part worked better. If I were to judge this as a phone it gets a D+. If I were to judge it as a mobile, Internet-enabled Handheld PDA it gets an A+. Thus my mixed emotions.
