[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
What you said was that you hooked up your HD to view your 5MP pictures on your television. I responded by asking you how many people would want to do that.

Of course, I don't dispute the advantage to be able to use the phone as a usb drive, and iPhone lets you do that too.

I think it's easier for you to simply admit that no equivalent (in terms of performance, and finger friendly design) picture viewing application exist in winmo platform.

It's not just the jerking. It's also the stability, responsiveness, consistency, etc that makes using it such a pleasurable experience.

Yes, I miss multi-tasking in some narrow specific situation (like wanting to check my user id and password in my eWallet without existing the browser), and I would admit to it because I do not blindly praise a platform where no credit is due.

I would be lying to say that iPhone mail client is perfect, however, it is even a bigger lie to say it is crippled.

If iTune is a bondage, can you tell me why is microsoft trying to emulate it now? Is ActiveSync a bondage? I don't feel that way. I think if you're an open minded person you will not say it is a bondage. I love iTune and Applestore. It is one of the best things coming over to the iPhone platform for me. I also enjoy the iTune on my iPhone which lets me listen to portion of all kinds of music before going round looking for them.

Yes, bluetooth file transfer is not as matured in iPhone. Both platform encounter situation where files could not be transferred. Winmo platform's file transfer in the native form work only half the time, unless you use Moblue.

I give this to you graciously.;).

You can still draw conclusion on its design. We know there is an ugly (to me anyway) titanium homescreen, wasted space on the titanium which forces lots of unnecessary, jerky and slow scrolling to find all the program. We also know that the underlying contact, emails, calendar, etc are unchanged. It's still unresponsive and jerky. Give me Dutty's Xtreme ROM 2.5 anytime.

I do not make my decision based on iPhone 3.0. It's good if it is going to improve but as it is I'm happy. The only thing I want is GPS navigation, which is independent of firmware 3.0

What is this sms lag all about? In winmo or iPhone? I'm not aware of any sms lag in either platform.

You keep talking about multi-tasking as if this single factor would redeem the faults in the other much more important areas. Sorry, I don't buy it. Yes, I do acknowledge there is no full multi-tasking in iPhone, but I look at the overall scheme of things before deciding for myself which one is more important to me. The more important aspects are the things that I face every single seconds (not something that you do once in three days like bluetooth file transfer or multitasking that I need only occassionally), and these are things like responsiveness, stability, consistency, smoothness, quality of applications design, etc.

I do not like to see scrollbar because it takes up your screen width. It makes scrolling left to right neccessary even for very narrow screen. It is so yester-decade. When there was no choice I use it, but why would I want to stick to it when there are better solution.

On desktop, I'm sure most of us do not use the scrollbar directly anymore. We use the scroll wheels on our mouse instead.
