Android is gaining market share fast and doesnt show any signs of slowing. Most news sources predict Android to be second, right behind the iphone in 2012

I loved WM, and if WM 7 is amazing then I'll go back to WM, but to compare the two operating systems right now, WM doesnt stand a chance. I would like for WM to come back, but I predict that Android, Blackberry and iPhone will continue to steamroll WM.


lol some of these folks are just brainwashed... worse than those iphone folks. Just cant see reality for what it is and admit that WM right now is a piece of garbage without customizing it. And yea I have a TP2

That's what bothers me about these fanatics. Its like if you dare mention something else, all of a sudden you get called a troll. I like technology for technologies sake, I don't have any loyalty for anyone or any company and that's how it should be. Weak minded people are too scared of options.

Re: Dump TP2 for Nexus One or HD2?

I had an iphone and think the android based devices are sweet but I have come back to windows because I like customizing it from the basic setup we all love/hate but what I am hoping for is being able to get the HD2 (I have the Touch Pro 2 right now) and be able to run android and windows not of course at the same time but choose one then reboot and bam up comes android, choose windows and reboot bam you have windows. Is there anymore word on mobile 7? Looking forward to all the great skins and apps coming in the near future let the battles rage.....................they are all getting better all the time.

Re: Dump TP2 for Nexus One or HD2?

Might this entire thread, just like the OP's last thread, be in the wrong forum section?

This is, still, the sub-forum for Touch Pro 2's?

Re: Dump TP2 for Nexus One or HD2?

Can the Nexus one be used as a modem (Tethered or phone as a modem) the way that the TP's can?

yes it can. its one of the top 10 apps for the nexus at the moment. without rooting your nexus you can only do wifi tethering.. Rooting is the same as unlocking, you have to root your phone if you want usb tethering.
