office, well yes being a microsoft suite you will have to pay for it on other os's, thats to be expected though.

as for the task manager, do u need one for closing out programs or for switching between programs? depends on your reason for it but there are free solutions for both

majority of apps in the market are free. what specific "cool program/app" are you looking for? perhaps i may be able to help u find it. honestly searching for apps in the market on the phone is a real pain in the ass atm (still easier than scouring thru online forums though). you should goto appbrain.com for searching for apps.

if u have anymore questions let me know.

EDIT: in terms of productivity it depends on what u mean by that. i find a lot of productivity apps on android to be comprable if not better on android, especially tasks programs. its crazy that tasks, something that microsoft essentially made popular themselves with outlook, can be handled so much better on another platform
jaja lo sabĂ*a que ibas a reaparecer acá. you still need to explain the lack of office apps on your beloved android.

Re: wm fails me again!

lol, i figured that would be the only part you would single out. theres no explanation needed, office is a microsoft product, its not gonna be free on os's that arent made by microsoft. docs2go is 30 bucks, it is what it is, i guess winmo wins there. you could do what i do though just hang on to your tp2 if u have a need for native office. not practical for most i guess but i dont mind carrying 2 devices around.

like i said before im not a winmo hater. i use it damn near everyday and still mod it, but for me personally, android takes better care of majority of what i need out of a phone, your results may vary.

Somebody should move this thread to another section. I would love to continue explaining how and why my evo is more efficient and more stable than my tp2 but this is not the thread for that. Can a moderator move this somewhere else or can someone start a thread just for this topic?

of course I singled it out, I did it intentionally to see how far ud go to defend ur precious android. I only carry 1 device and that's my tp2 I can do anything I can do on my pc on it.

Re: wm fails me again!

I'm with ya Eric.... as for the "hack for free wifi sharing??? find a old free version of wmwifi router and there was no hack involved. This is nothing more than a opinion war now which we are all entitled too. If you have a Android phone and you like it/love it cool have at it but for the love of christ quit coming in here tell us still faithful winmo users how bad winmo sucks and just move on to your android forums please, thankyou and have a great day!!!!

then stop bitching about "how shitty WM is" in a WM forum, either contribute or get out. let WM users enjoy their platform and collaborate and share it with others on how to improve it so it can be more enjoyable. this kind of commentary has no place in this forum and does nothing but start flame wars so you and all your other android-desgraciados should stop coming into WM threads doing this. I don't even think iPhone users do this.

I forgot to mention I am on froyo 2.2 which at the moment was not able to be rooted. So I was not able to do any of those tweaks you mentioned. I see now there is a way, though I'm still hesitant to try it.

WimMo was nothing but great to me, and I am having withdrawls!

Still won't bash the Evo, Ill give it a few more weeks!
