Doesn't mention the CPU/GPU specs.

What really irks me about WinMo is that just when the platform was on the cusp of reaching the masses with widespread adoption by consumers (and not just business users), easier app installation as well as a marketplace, and some great apps from Microsoft (Bing has replaced Google Maps on my phone), they're dropping it for an entirely new platform that requires abandoning all outdated hardware that could probably run the new OS very easily. WinMo tends to run slower on new phones bc it was never written explicitly to take advantage of the hardware. The apps on my TP2 range from spectacular to outright shameful. It's sad to see such a good piece of hardware face so limitations because of crippled software. and to be left behind when the next great software revolution happens is just salt in the wound.

to my earlier statement, maxsense might be able to save windows mobile, after it has been worked on a bit..

but wisbar advanced desktop could be a contender to save windows mobile.. has numerouse themes being created and can give windows mobile a totally different look.. there are even windows mobile 7 themes that look pretty cool

how would these 2 ui's save wm? ive used wisbar in the past and gave maxsense a shot earlier in the week. both are nicely organized and well put together but think about it, probably less than 2% of all the people around the world with wm devices are running either of these. i agree they will keep wm fresh for a bit for people here, but the members here and on xda makeup a drop in the bucket of all wm users. these may keep some of you guys from jumping ship but they will hardly be a savior, too much blood has been lost already.

you have a point.. . if only more people knew about them.. i am enjoying WAD way more than maxsense right now though.. dont know just yet if i am enjoying it enough to keep me from getting the evo in september when my upgrade is up though.

i really do like maxsense even in its current unfinished form. they really did a good job of combining ui's and os's into one package

Use to be a wm and Touch Pro 2 fan, Now I think the phone is a P.O.S. (sprint version) it makes no sense for wm to freeze as much as it does, or to respond as slow as it does.

oh yeah since we're getting things off our chest.


There are a lot of bums here that only want apps/games for free. (those of you know who you are!) There are tons of devs here that create free-ware many of you have downloaded and enjoyed, but when they create a paid-ware, many of you dont' show support, and then turn around and talk crap about the free stuff. why are you complaining, ITS FREE! Try donating before you start complaining.


Free loaders kiss my
