Leaving WinMo for HERO (android)

I have friends with both the Hero and Moment and they both love their phones respectively. Having just loaded WM6.5 custom ROM there is a noticeable improvement in speed and customization. This upgrade has given my Mogul a much needed jolt in the arm as I haggle with Sprint to drop the price on the TP2.

the vibrate was too weak on the hero for me, I'm holding out for HTC android device with a qwerty

does 6.5 work faster than 6.1 on the HTC Mogul PPC-6800. also im liking the TP2 too. but they want way too much money

I think i'm gonna stick with windows mobile, i can't lie......i love it!!!!!! a lot of people prob disagree with me but i like being able to toy with my OS as i see fit and the other OS's don't actually do anything windows mobile can't. I actually like 6.5.3 and if i tire of the SPB Mobile shell is awesome. I REALLY want a HD2.....i'd be in heaven with it's huge screen and 1ghz processor and all that lovely ram.

Yeah, HD2 would be great, but they don't offer it on the Sprint network ....for now. Like I said in original post, I love WinMo, but they need to step it up a notch. I was a loyal customer for a LONG time, but I'm loving this HERO. Waiting to see what lil goodies will be available in the 2.1 android update. I dont want to take anything away from WinMo, ..except of course my business heh, but I like WinMo, they just need to wake up and smell the JAVA.I think they will surprise everyone with ver 7 ....or at least hope they will. If not, I predict they will become the beta-max of cell phones. Thats just my opinion. You guys will have your own, and thats they way its supposed to be.
