- Windows Mobile is better than you think
- My main gripeis with the antique user interface which is little more than an uninspired, miniaturized desktop GUI.The foundations seems solid enough now - it is quite decent in multi-tasking and is generally responsive.I too believe that if MS can reinvigorate the UI they still has a strong competitor.
