[HD7 General] rysky007:
have u used an HD2? with WM 6.5? go to emails, its the nice feature were u see all the email accounts in one place and can select them without having to jump to the home screen every time, then when u go into your in box, u select menu and then scroll down to select all, then delete and walla done.

My E51 which was top model for its time and being a bar phone in 2006 has that feature for email and sms, it can play songs streaming online at the same time while browsing the web on its tiny window and sms or what ever i need to do. It had customizable profiles, so that if i wanted my keys to make a sound but ring volume to be vibrate only, but sms alerts to make a beep I could not ring, but a beep which volume I could select of just that beep. Why do you need that? some times its useful. Hell that features was available on the Nokia 2190 which I used to sell when they first came out 1999. Yes WM thinks we just either vibrate, or ring.

Ull say go get a nokia then, id love to, and when nokia comes out witha phone that will trample all these I will gladly. The down side to my situation is that there is no decent nokia retailers in my city, so I have no way to play with new symbian OS to see what is like and which model I like. So Im stuck waiting

Avg user tween? not sure how many tweens run around with feee 500$ to buy this bad boy, I know I know two year contract only $200, again, how many tweens have spare $200 laying around, in the city I live probably a lot, rich snotty kids, but that is not the general public, that is about 20% of the market, the rest are lower middle class kids who just cant quite cut that kind of a deal each time they want to get a phone.

So who has the funds for such toys? middle class guys who like tech toys, i mean lets face it why did we all buy this phone? I tell you why I did.. cause when I heard that WM was coming out with W7 for the mobile platform, and after using Wm6.5 i figured it be like an upgrade form Xp to W7 on desk tops, instead I got a pretty version of W95 for face book.

Im sure in the future it will be a nice platform, what saddens me is that its a high end phone that's being pushed out for FB tweens, they have tons of units for that already, hell tmobile has so many phones they give away for 30$ that do fb and music and all that fun stuff for tweens, I was under the impression that this phone was made for phone ppl, who want settings who want control, who want a unit for business and pleasure who dont mind dropping 500$ on a phone cause they like it.

And then u guys talk it up and defend it here like its the best thing to ever come out, when in reality its nothing different, just has good sliding effects and touch responses added with a script that takes data and updates it to the launch icon for that app. Tiles are nothing special, they are the same thing as a launch icon that simply updates, its like if the little icon you press to open up you email client on your pc would have a number appear on it to tell you that you have a certain amount of email waiting. its still an icon. you still press it to get to the actual program.

Makes me wonder now if there is extra battery usage for the icon aka tile to check on that software and show updates.

U guys prob think im some lunatic who likes to complain, and I assure that is not so, I am a person who expects to be not treated like an idiot by a company cause of hype, I expect that when you charge for something that there is value to it, and I expect that a group of smart intelligent forum users to see through the BS of a company when they have it.

Please excuse my ranting, just frustrates me because I love the hard ware, ( wish the SD card was easier to access) but the OS is jacked up.

Sorry for the ranting again.
