[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Keep deceiving yourself, my friend. You seem very happy doing it. Keep denying that winmo devices hang much more frequently than iPhone. You can always find an iPhone user who complain that iPhone hangs, and you can always find one winmo user who says winmo device never hang on him. But you can't deny that hanging and instabiilty affects winmo devices much much more than iPhone without losing your credibility.

At the risk of repeating myself again and again, I say this for your thick head one last time: I had never said multi-tasking is not important to me. It is just that I place more values on things that affect me every seconds and minutes of use instead of things that I occassionally need. It is making a hard choice.

Again, last time to your thick head. I'd rather have a mail that allows me to at least read all of them. I can do attachment in a less efficient way, no big deal. But can you read ALL your mail on HD? The answer is no. iPhone lets me read mail without having to press scroll left and scroll right for every line that I read. Can HD mail do that for every single mail? The answer is no. What what's all this talk about iPhone not capable of doing basic stuffs in mail that HD can? Sounds rather hollow, does'nt it?

You want to know how many times have I send an attachment with my winmo mail either using my Athena or HD? What if I tell you the answer is NEVER even once? I only starting sending photos (and only once) as attachment to my relatives from my iPhone because I found it fun to do so. Another example: Altough my iPhone can now do MMS, how many times have I used it? Answer: just once, for the purpose of testing it only. How many times have I used MMS in my Athena and HD? What if I tell you the answer is NEVER even once? One last example: How many times have I used the video conferencing feature of my Athena and HD? What if I tell you NEVER even once?

So, back to the the basis for my own decision making: I place more weight on stuffs that affects me every minutes/seconds of use, and less on those that I either never or only occassionally use (even for heavy users like me). iPhone appeals to me because every functions and features it has it implements it extremely well, making it far more useable and stable than winmo platform. I never disagree that winmo has features and functions like multitasking, cut and paste, bluetooth file transmission, T9, etc that are useful. I have some cut and paste capability on my jailbroken iPhone now. How many times have I used it? Not even once. I have bluetooth file transfer capability on my iPhone now. How many times have I used it? Only four or five files during testing, and did'nt find it necessary again after that. No, I don't do B/T sync like you. USB cable works fine for me, cos it is faster and easier.

Everyone has potentially different requirements and attitude that might be best met with a specific solution. If you must do video conferencing, you choiose HD. It you are attracted to a user friendly and stable platform, you choose iPhone. I'm both a winmo and iPhone fanboy and can see the strength and weakness of both sides. You can become a fanboy to both and choose the one that you like more after that. In my case, I use my HD only for GPS navigation because iPhone does'nt have the capability now (some iPhone users would jump at me and protest at this statement, but my standard for GPS navigation is different from theirs). Please. It's okay to be a winmo fanboy, but not fanatics, who make statements like "iphone is only a toy. It is just another hello kitty. Applestore only sells stuffs like iFart." etc. It only shows your ignorance, bias, and fanatism. Start becoming a winmo fanboy and stop being a fanatic.

I do not know much about Symbian. My experience with Nokia has been very bad in the past but that was with simple phone, not smartphones. Keyboard input types out only garbage in every single unit that I had owned. Screen only displayed garbage on two of them. But, I would never make comment about Symbian because I do not have enough experience beyond playing with it on friend's phone.
