But, other than the flashlight app, are there any other apps that you are looking for? There are 38K apps in the market, so what you need is probably available.

Except for no app to play WMA Streams.

I had three WM smartphones. Currently I have a Android Samsung Moment. Android Blows away winmo in ever single aspect.. bar none. Yes, I had many many custom roms for my smartphones.

This only shows a few of the most popular apps.

http://www.android.com/market/

For a comprehensive, up-to-date list of the thousands of titles that are available, you will need to view Android Market on a handset. (copied from the link above)

Wow. I am aware they are WM streams but a BlackBerry runs them just fine, palm runs them just fine. Im sorry, just bitter that I cant listen to my local radio stations cause they all run off of a WMA stream.

How does the facebook app (if any) compare to the WinMo version?

**tokuzumi** · #19 (**permalink**) 04-21-2010, 04:37 PM

The only thing I've noticed about the Facebook app, is you can't send private messages through the Android app. I think with the WM app, you can. I haven't used the WM app since October 2009, so I'm a little fuzzy on anything else.
