How would you change Windows Mobile 6.5? {Engadget}

Nov 7th 2009 11:22AM Dang - good point - I can't believe I forgot to mention that - multiple exchange accounts!!!!!! (Too bad Outlook still has the same limitations - you can have a second e-mail account open or use pop or imap but it still doesn't really have FULL multiple exchange accounts unless you close one profile and open another - not sure who people are at MS who only have one exchange account)

How would you change Windows Mobile 6.5? {Engadget}

Nov 7th 2009 11:18AM 1 I'd improve the bluetooth stack (not sure if it is an HTC thing or WM)

2 I'd get rid of the honeycomb layout - inefficient use of space - requires more downward scrolling

3 I'd make it give you the option of changing the layout and shortcuts on your home screen like SPB pocket plus does

4 I'd make it give you more options for indicators on VM, messages etc like SPB phone suite.

5 I'd make it work properly as a PHONE - often when any WM device I've had goes into an area with no reception such as a undeground parking garage I'd have to reset it -for it to work properly as a PHONE.

6 Do whatever I can to make it more stable - less resets.

7 Integrate Voice Command - shouldnt' be a seperate product. Also fix VC so that when it verifies what you say on BT it is as loud as everything else.

And the number one thing I'd do to improve WM - is ask this F~(#|#& question on Microsofts web site and have the F~(#|#& engineers, Project Managers, Designers all READ the responses so they actually designed the product better instead of in their little ivory tower where they keep making the same mistakes over and over again in each version of WM with tiny little improvements.

iPhone coming to The Shack: Dallas and NYC this month, nationwide in 2010? {Engadget}

Nov 6th 2009 8:27PM I'm looking forward to the day the caption says the iPhone is coming to Verizon (or less likely-Sprint). I get terrible coverage in most cities I visit with ATT and Tmobile but get good coverage between Verizon and Sprint.

Poll: Will the DROID have you in its clutches? {Engadget}

Nov 6th 2009 11:03AM Dang - too bad there aren't a couple of more choices such as - I'd get android but on better hardware, or holding out for a different phone. I'd be willing to move to Verizon if they had the HD2.

DROID mania sweeps the nation, so to speak {Engadget}

Nov 6th 2009 9:36AM While Android 2.0 is a HUGE step forward it is still missing some business functionality I need found in WM 6.5 however by Adroid 2.2 I'm expecting to be preferring android over WM 6.5.

That being said - hardware is very important too and frankly after seeing the HD2 everything else looks pretty darn antiquated to me other than the toshiba TG01.

Saygus VPhone V1 hits the FCC, headed for Verizon next? {Engadget}

Nov 5th 2009 1:47PM It looks to me like it was made out of spare parts or build about 5 years ago. Something about this to me says - it will be available on street corners along with $50 genuine Roelex watches.

DROID ERIS hands-on and unboxing! {Engadget}

Nov 5th 2009 10:46AM Seems about the same as the HTC touch which I've had for about 2 plus years now. I would consider the HD2 or the iPhone a huge upgrade to my old phone though.

Verizon's DROID ERIS by HTC does Android and keeps it cheap {Engadget}

Nov 5th 2009 9:27AM WOW - I didn't realize how bad my complaining was - I think I simply stated I'd pay more monthly if I could get the phones I wanted on Verizon. Did I say it sucks? Did I say it was highway robbery? What about my complaint bugged you most or was it simply you like to infer?

Verizon's DROID ERIS by HTC does Android and keeps it cheap {Engadget}

Nov 5th 2009 8:52AM If Verizon got the HD2 or the iPhone I'd consider switching providers althought I'd pay a lot more monthly.

ASUS retools Eee Keyboard, swaps in capacitive touchscreen {Engadget}

Nov 4th 2009 5:54PM That's kind of the point - all the newest keyboards are useless for general business or even most home use. They seem strictly for gaming. It is fine logitech and others are coming out with cool gaming keyboards - unfrotunately they forgot to keep releasing general purpose wireless keyboards as well.
