The way I see it, this fragmentation - with allowing the OEMs to add their own little flavor to the vanilla Android OS (Blur for Motorola, Sense for HTC, etc.), it just delays all the phones from being instantly updated. That much is obvious. Microsoft did it right, just like Apple - they told the OEMs, essentially saying: "There will be no tweaking of the Windows Mobile OS. It will be deployed as is." This allows them to push out updates instantly to every phone out there at the same time,...

Jobs, the head honcho for Apple, recently made an announcement that he wants the IPad and IPhone to be “porn-free.” Initially, this seems to be a great thing. Furthermore, Mr. Jobs certainly has the right to control his products and determine how they will be built. No one has to buy an Apple product if he does not want to. I personally have never been a fan of the Apple line of products. I did own an IPod classic (which in all fairness I used extensively, and loved), but I turned down an...

Well, at least couple of phones and loads of custom rom users can take a test run on the new Marketplace application for the windows mobile 6.5 platform. What are your thoughts and perhaps favorite apps? My opinions: - Installing queue = AWESOME, i was not expecting this. - Font is quite big on a vga device. Causes unnecessary scrolling. - Catalog is not too impressive yet. But plenty of free stuff. Tested apps: Facebook has not been updated. slimPassword, just the thing i have always wanted....
I have an iphone 3gs, but i really like the way WinMo is getting better and smoother... has anyone used WinMo 6.5? (i know its not out yes, but beta is). What do you guys think about it? Doesn't it looking really good and has more features than other mobile OSz?
