Is winmo dying?

[ricchini2007]

i use to love windows but android is so pretty. i will never look back. does the hd2 have a front facing camera and can the hd2 make video calls not lol go droid droid

How is the HD2 inferior? The only thing the iPhone has over is is the front facing camera & a slightly higher-res display. Not trying to argue, just curious where you get that perspective from.

Sorry I was away the entire week.

advantages of the iphone: (This will be purely technology wise so I will avoid preferences)

better screen resolution
better camera sensor
Gyroscope
Better and more efficient 45nm CPU (I'm not sure if its udnerclocked though..not sure)
Better GPU


Don't get me wrong the HD2 is a nice device, I wish my TP2 has a snapdragon..it should have :/..

but it sucks when a dumb phone beats a smartphone hardware wise

Any time someone uses the saying that their smartphone has better hardware then an iphone it makes feel embarrassed as it is not the case :/

At the moment the only device with equal/superior hardware is the Galaxy S Phones..

I find it soo funny.. how people are like the your phone is old. etc. get a evo. or the hd2 is inferior.. take the hero.. granted it has no front facing cam. ( who needs it anyway) snapdragon.. ( Its nice, but again for most its overkill ) and the size,, im prolly the only one that likes the size of the hero.. etc.. but anyway this is bout wm dying.lol

wm is dying...or on its last breath.. I do love the tp2.. but went back to it for 3 weeks. and couldnt take it. had to go buy another hero.. love android too much.. so the tp2 goes back in the drawer til a fully working android build comes along...

I just hope with windows & i can turn off that stupid tiled home screen crap much like I can disable titanium in 6.5...but I dont think that will be possible. Thats always been the beauty of windows mobile is I can make the home screen interface anything I want. Now I have to stare at XBox live, fck I dont even have an xbox (i have a ps3). sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks.

Well, the GUI we love (and love to modify) is HTC's sense. HTC has said they will make a new version of sense for 7. The bad news is it's going to be "quite different" and it's not known if you can really change the look and layout of the home screen.

But here's what cheers me up - even apple, the kings trying to keep control of locked down devices... couldn't keep total control of their iphone, and now people are fooling with it in ways apple never intended (including nice visual themes). I think even if MS tries to prevent people from changing their devices, the smart programmers out there will find a way. There hasn't been a windows OS yet that can't be modified all to hell.

So just courious, why would you buy WP7 if you don't like the way it looks, or runs?
Why not just go with a "better" device like Android?

Ya well thats my delima, i love 6.5.X but with no developement its done. Android is looking good right now. I want to give 7 chance and actually play with a device but everything I am see doesnt look good. Right now I am 70% sure I am going to have to go andriod but who knows.

Yes I have to agree I like WM 6.5, and I still can't believe they are just dropping this platform, and I guess we will have to wait and see what happens with 7, my way of thinking is Android is already out there, and maturing, with tons of apps, I know for me now that Docs to go has made a program for Android that will be the way I go when I need to replace my Intrepid.
