Thread WAW's right. I haven't been here in a while :(

The only phone that ever crapped out on me was my original razr
Oh, and the BB that I tried to update, at RIMs recommendation
Really liking the Droid so far, tho.

Welcome to borg android!

Yikes!

The Mrs. went through several Treo's, kept dying on her.

I loved my 650. That was a tank. My Centro, however, was a piece of shit.

I think it was the 650 that croaked on her.

Back to the OP, inline's new phone

Wait, you actually have a living TP1??? Didn't they have like a 50% DOA rate?

Amazingly enough, I do. It's buggy as shit, the touch screen has down's syndrome, and it looses it's charge faster than a 90 year old who drank a red bull. WinMo is disappointing. to say the least. Web browsing, either through IE Mobile or Opera Mobile, is embarrassing, and the size of the screen has me looking for some Enzyte.

I'd love it if my welcome back thread turned into a bitch about phones.

You don't know Ma171aC very well

PalmOS and Blackberry are such feeble systems compared to android and iPhone.

agreed.

WebOS, however, is awesome. In case you hadn't heard it's not related to PalmOS.

Blackberry is VERY solid though.

Easily the most indestructible phone I ever had both hardware and software wise.

iPhone gets an automatic lose becuase of the lack of a real keyboard

Palm loses because it's, well, Palm.

Android and WinMo I can get behind, but I'm not ready to assimilate into the Google Horde so I went WinMo.

You get used to the iPhone keyboard pretty quickly.

I had a Treo 700 before the iPhone and it only took about a week to get used it.

Touchscreens and I don't get along very well.

I need to use the stylus for everything that's not simply scrolling.

And even then it does stuff I don't want it to do.

Not if you have man hands. The fact that you still can't landscape some aspects of the keyboard makes it a worthless touchscreen for me.

(To give a general idea of the size of my hands, on a full size piano, my fingers can stretch across 11 keys and I wear a size 13 ring)

Thats the other complaint Ive heard. Do you even get a day out of the battery?

Not if you're getting email on it it seems.

When we were south of the border, the Mrs. was getting 3 days at least out of it with the data connection turned off.

touchscreen keyboards are shit. They are statistically slower to type on, and with my dry hands, completely useless.

That has been fixed.

I've had no issues typing on one......And I'm using the storm where not only do you touch, but you have to press down as well.

Setting up Exchange email is now landscaped? Because the one I did this on yesterday still didn't switch and it was a new phone.

 

[Syrup Beaver]

And the screen gets all dicked up with fingerprints...
