You can tether with any WinMo phone for free without paying for a Phone As Modem plan.

Heh you said it.

This IS the best phone in the world right now, nothing touches it.

Also the best looking interface, hands down.

This will definitely be my next phone.

Should I be more disappointed in some company trying to scam users to buy their products in order to make themselves still feel relevant when their wares are no longer need,

or

Should I should be more disappointed in Engadget for being foolish enough to give them any air time by posting this.

Not only are you an iDiot, but you're also an illiterate moron.

This had nothing to do with Windows, this had everything to do with lazy admins.

No updates in 3/4 of a year to their a/v software, they were just asking for it.

At least half the worlds servers run on Windows, (like 0.01% on OSX, if that even), so if this truly was Windows fault, and the problem was that ubiquitous and prevalent with the OS in question, then stories like this would be popping up not only every day, but every hour.

Incompetence and complacency was to blame here, not MS.

Troll Different.

Detox,

Um No.

That only shows Q2 marketshare.

You are deluding yourself however if you believe for a second that the iPhone has a larger install base than WinMo.

WinMo spanks the iPhone in terms of install base worldwide.

DR House,

Im proud of you.

THE KING OF PHONES IS UNLEASHED.

The second this thing hits US shores, Im buying it.

This makes the iPhone look like shit.

You mean like Google themselves?

"Google hits Android ROM modder with a cease-and-desist letter

by Nilay Patel posted Sep 24th 2009 at 10:26PM

So this is interesting: apparently Google's hit the developer of the Cyanogen modded Android ROM with a cease-and-desist letter, asking him to stop distributing the closed-source Google apps like Gmail, Maps, and YouTube. What's a little strange is that Cyanogen is targeted at "Google Experience" devices like the G1 and myTouch, so it's not like Google is really protecting anything here -- leading us to wonder if they're just using the copyright argument to shut down a popular mod that's tempted over 30,000 users into rooting their phones. That's just speculation on our part, though -- the dev says he's trying to open a dialogue with Google, so perhaps we'll find out some more answers soon."

Android is less open to customization and modding at this point than WinMo, unless you want to get slapped with a cease and desist from Google themselves.

gerrrg

You iDiot.

That's not OS marketshare.

THIS is OS marketshare.

It's:
1. Symbian OS
2. RiM OS
3. Windows Mobile
4. iPhone OS
5. Android
6. Palm

You're looking at traffic, NOT marketshare.
