Microsoft REALLY screwed themselves over with windows mobile 6.5. What people wanted was a direct change to the way it works and looks. I think if they had released it with the Start button and such at the bottom of the screen it would have looked much better in the eyes of the reviewers. I REALLY like the start button on the bottom like in some of the later 6.5 builds I ran on my touch pro. People didn't want the same old windows mobile look since PPC 2002, they want something different.

How do you know what everyone wants? I'm perfectly happy and knew all along that 6.5 was just a more refined OS than before. Especially since I've been using it for months on the TP. Anyway let's not have a ton of threads on this, there's already a good one here:
