But in the sense that they are both restricted and not hackable then it is like iphone.

My TP2 has been a workhorse and I have loved it. I want to thank GoodThings2Life for his excellent Tweaks... u de Man! I have hauled it to Africa and Ecuador where it worked as a phone and a great travel aid, if not a WM device. I am hauling it to Bishkek, but may switch to a different device there. It depends on what they have going on. TP2 relaced my TP to get two radios for world travel. In the US it has been indispensible with all of its tricked out s**t. Actually, if I ditch TP2 in Kyrg, the next thing will have to really rock.

Trying not to acknowledge those @aedon posts. But yea anyway I love WM been with it since 2004 when I got a hp h1910 as a gift then upgraded to a Dell axim x50 but was later upgraded to an x51v because of all the problems (seems dell still hasn't learned their lesson because even the dell venue pro is having issues) I then moved on to a TP in 2009 and in may 2010 being frustrated with the battery issues I was having (dying and overheating on the charger) after it did that during a phone call with my gf at the time I called sprint and they replaced it with a TP2 which I still have but no longer in primary use as I now have an HTC arrive.

no disrespect to the XDAndroid devs and testers. Just that my tp2 is my work phone and I can't count the times where it has functioned as my back-up pc and mobile office. Unfortunately, I depend on my phone too much. Most likely will switch to a native Android device cause I still like to play phone nerd. I've learned a lot from WM and much thanks goes to the PPCGeeks.

lol, sorry eric, but its just not the same. Im glad it works for you, but its not for me. not now anyway
the day windows phone 7 becomes as customizable as windows mobile i'll jump back on the band wagon. But it just doesnt work for me at this point in time.
I just dont like the interface of the tiles at all, and I want to be able to skin things on there like I have on window mobile.

Sorry if it bothers you that Im not into windows 7 as much as you are, but on another note when I brought up the iphone you called it the iphony so youve got a distaste too :b

Ir's really a shame the MS just dumped WM. They shut down everything WM and then they expect us to support W7? I'm with aedon, I don't like the W7 interface with the tiles and no customizability.
WAKE UP MICROSOFT!!!!

lol eric give it up, from experience I'll tell you...there are people who hated touchwiz because they heard bad things about it, there are people who hated it cause they heard it looks like an iphone a bit. And there are people who flat out don't like it. People can change their minds if they heard something, then tried it.

But if they already tried it and they don't like it, its impossible to convince them to like it.
