Re: Will they finally admit it??
Now that i have left WM i have seen there is a lot more stable mobile os's out there, but there is still a lot out there that i wish i can have on my pre witch WM still offers. To be honost thats that only thing holding it down for windows. The fact thats its such an open standard that any joe shmoe can make a program for it and it can be something that you actually really need/want is good cause it leaves us with a lot of apps to play with.

Re: Will they finally admit it??
I just recently gave my Touch Pro to my cousin. After using the TP and the Pre together for since the Pre came out, I gotta say I like both OS in a major way. I thknk WM is still more business friendly, as longs as you have the programs to get the job done. I think the Pre is coming along, but deeply shadowed by Android. But what do you expect? Android has been around longer. PreCentral is making soem gret headway with Homebrew apps. But Like I said ealier over at EPre, They need to focus on fixing Pre before the end of the year. 100% agree with that. That needs to be the main focus. We need to pull our thoughts together to find out what needs to be in those major updates. But I think they are going to need a major slam dunk for Q1 of next year. And if they are smart, they will have that phone out buy Feb at the lastest. I thkn at this point they need to turn to HTC , Samsung or another device maker to help out. THey may loose a little money for outsourcuing the design, but they will win alot of fans by using one of the bigger names.

Re: Will they finally admit it??
I played with a palm pre at the sprint store. I REALLY liked it, but I also REALLY like the iphone. They are great devices, and as a geek, I would LOVE to spend some time with all of them. In the end, I chose to stick with my touch pro when the pre came out, and now that the tp2 is out, I upgraded to that and plan on selling the tp. I'm really happy with my touch pro 2. It seems to be a perfect fit for me.

Re: Will they finally admit it??
well saying andriod is better is nothing more than a opinion.. just because people admire themes from other devices ( ie hero theme ) doesnt make the hero a better device for everyone.
people like the iphone theme but does that make them want a iphone?,,not really.. everyone is diff. most follow trends...or whats cool. me i just buy what i need,, not what someone else thinks i need.lol enjoy what u can afford...for me right now im all bout the pre..cause it just works for what i need. without a hicup!!!!!!!!! |

Re: Will they finally admit it??
Personally I didn't flash to a custom ROM because the WM version on my diamond was bad, I did because I can, I find it interesting to experiment. You know hence that word in the websites name "geeks". To say that other phone OS's don't have problems is BS, they all have problems. There is nothing wrong with wanting to tweak your device to make it better than it already is, that doesn't make WM mobile bad that's what makes it great.

I think that buzz about wireless site or sprintusers site would be a better place to look at in order to judge just how problematic WM phones are. |

Re: Will they finally admit it??
It's really a great time to be a phone junkie, there are so many options for everyone to choose. For now I decided to get Pre, it does slow down sometimes but it's a "PHONE" you gotta just realize that life won't end because of 1 or 2 extra seconds of waiting. I think the Pre does lots of things well and needs improvements (calendar).
I had WM for 2+ years and enjoyed flashing roms and making the phone unique for my use. The diamond sometimes would lag lag lag but I kept it and it worked well when not lagging. Being able to reg hack in WM for tethering is great and I can't wait for WM to move forward with a better interface. I wanted to try something new so I retired the diamond and moved to the Pre. Android has lots of promise and I almost jumped to the Hero but I didn't want to go back to a Vkeyboard. When a strong Android player comes to Sprint (with a real keyboard) I'll pick it up and enjoy it. Every OS and phone has its strength and weaknesses just enjoy what you have and if you don't like it jump ship to something else. |
