I've been using WM 5 and 6 for the past couple of years. I have a cheap data plan and the GSM network around my neck of the woods might as well be non existent, so regrettably, the iPhone is not an option. WM sucks big time. Even at 6.1 it's still a total POS in terms of user interface and incredibly flaky. Not long after the last holiday season a consumer publication mentioned that PDA phones were the most returned Xmas gifts as they were judged too complicated to use. Small wonder. Microsoft says you can do a lot more with Windows Mobile. Indeed. A lot more soft resetting, hard resetting, swearing, cursing... Just try to watch Youtube on WM. Count them: 74 pages of technical discussions from this site alone: http://discussion.wmexperts.com/showthread.php?t=148801
