It must be a game or something. It MUST be. Seriously. How obvious could it be that the upgrade to one of the most popular Pocket PC devices (Titan/Mogul) would be on EVERYONE's wish list? They have to know, these corporate puppets, who make us wait on devices like the Raphael.

Look at the f-in iPhone. Over one million sold already, and the damned thing hasn't been out for a month yet. What--are they trying to create anticipation artificially? Is this waiting game entirely contrived? It has to be. No one can be that stupid, could they? I almost refuse to believe that HTC, Sprint, Verizon, and all the other bed mates could be so dumb as to screw something like this up on accident. It has to be on purpose. I just has to be.

No one can be that dumb.

The problem is that they know they will make a buck no matter what. They rest on their laurels because for all intents and purposes they have NO COMPETITORS other than the iPhone. They know the geeks will wait as long as we have to to get our nerdy paws on one. And they know that the average consumer is about as smart as a can of yellow cling peaches.

I'm sick of being teased like this....so much so that I've thought about getting a basic LG music phone called the Chocolate 3. Simple design. Mini USB port for data and charging. Standard 3.5mm headphone jack. USB wall charger. Transflash support. FM Radio broadcast. Smart.

So we get a new Windows Mobile device. Then we have to hack it. Then we have to patch it. Then we have to wait some more for new features to leak. Then we have to patch again. Boom. Wow. GPS. SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE FROM THE BEGINNING DAY 1!!!

I'm really annoyed and sick of this crap. It's all a corporate game, and I'm so ed right now, I'm strongly considering not playing anymore.
