Yes indeed, in order to enjoy a great device with outstanding hardware, you gotta put up with the "omg you're such a fanboy lol rofl omg iphone sucks"

But it's all gravy, baby

I would definitely get this phone today if I could put WM6.5.5 on it now and WP7 later. Android has a lot of promise but right now, for my needs, that is all android has. My old Touch WM let's me make BT voice dial calls now, it has for years. My phone before that let me do it to. Android 2.2 is going to get this with limitations however you'll lose the sense overlay for the EVO which makes Android tolerable if you want Android 2.2 on the EVO any time soon. I have fantastic integration now with e-mail, the sense overlay helps to get around the sad integration with Exchange that Android versions prior to 2.2 have. Android 2.2 will be better than previous versions - almost as good as what WM has had for years. Of course WM is bad for battery conservation but Android is even worse!

WM is much more oriented for what I use my phone for than Android is. Perhaps by Android 2.4 they'll have that huge gap filled in but right now I'd rather have WM and in the near future WP7. However I'd also be very happy to get a 4G iphone on Sprint as well so I'm not stuck on MS products.

I'm sure there will be some trolls who would say but WM is soo old and I agree it is but the NEW Android still doesn't do what I need my phone to do as well as OLD WM. Again, while Android 2.3 or 2.4 or 2.5 may be all that and a bag o' chips - I want to use my phone NOW and WM does all that NOW. WP7 looks better than WM in a few ways but for my needs android doesn't really do anything I want better even with 2.2.

I see a lot of fanboy posts but I label them as fanboys for different reasons. I see a lot of fanboy posts for android - often from people who haven't even tried android but hate another product. I often see fanboys who post how android is superior even though someone else will say their iphone or WM phone does these things that they need and Android doesn't. If someone wants a different phone because it does what they want better for their business needs than Android - than yes the other phone is superior. If Android does what you want well than for your needs it is better for you but there is no need to be so small or closed minded to assume that because you don't use your phone for the same things as other peoples that all other phones suck.

I thought iphone people were fanboys when the very first iphone was being released but I've never seen so much fanboyism as those who post for Android. Maybe they are angry the iphone only is available on ATT and hate the ATT service or maybe they hate WM because it is an MS product but you never see them slamming Symbian, BB or Palm -they seem focused on iphone and WM for whatever reason.

I support end users with just about every phone OS you can think of and besides the palm pre, I don't think I've seen nearly as many phones returned by my clients as the android phones. That doesn't make android a bad OS - just not right for most business end users. I really think the iphone is a great phone but for coverage, att is pretty bad. I keep having to lend my phone to iphone users so they can make phone calls.
