I just hope there's people out there developing for them.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jerry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 20th 2009 10:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Possible new Windows Mobile 7 mockups give 6.5 a well-deserved spanking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wanted a pre for a long time to replace my iphone, but then I found out (I think this is true) that you can freely install apps onto it.

I'd definitely go for a platform which doesn't have any limits instead because there's bound to be vast oodles more apps available for it. And they're bound to be better as well, just because the platform's not tied down. And Apple's claim to do this so that the integrity of the platform isn't diminished is clearly SO fake.<br><br>Ideology over common sense every day - it's the only way to go!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 21st 2009 4:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Possible new Windows Mobile 7 mockups give 6.5 a well-deserved spanking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Clearly there are so many apps in the Apple store that one couldn't possibly need to go elsewhere to find what they want.

What bothers me about it though is that they still need palm's permission. They may not have to go to the same app approval process but palm could still bar an app. It also seems to me (ged in law) that they could be legally liable for apps that some content holders feel is detrimental to their business or wireless carriers feel they don't want on their network. Someone will eventually twist palm's arm and force them to revoke a url or deny one outright. With windows mobile and android, this should never happen because google and microsoft have no part in at all in getting the app on the device.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[k2snowboards88]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 21st 2009 10:30AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Possible new Windows Mobile 7 mockups give 6.5 a well-deserved spanking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[@nick and patrick<br><br>Flash, different browser, rss agregator, podcast downloader (That one may have finally been allowed past the app store), multicodec video player, and old console emulators just to name a few.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[k2snowboards88]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 21st 2009 11:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Possible new Windows Mobile 7 mockups give 6.5 a well-deserved spanking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[How is windows mobile web browsing these days? I'm using an iPhone 3g now and really want to switch back to windows mobile with an AT&T Tilt 2, but only if the browsing as at least as smooth and convenient as it is on the iphone. I used to have a wizard and a tytn. Web browsing was terrible. The iphone was the first phone that I would use for web browsing even if my laptop was only across the room.

This is arguably the best mobile browser available. Fast customizable and my favorite feature is it auto adjusts text column size depending on zoom level so you never have to scroll left or right when reading.<br><br>-Opera mini: The fastest mobile brpwser available. Since this uses server side rendering its much faster than Opera Mobile or WebKit EVER will be. But since the page is processed on a server in norway or somthing, it will never look quite as good as Opera Mobile or WebKit. And logging into mobile banking my trigger alerts because you will be seen as logging in from a different country<br><br>-Iris: A great browser right behind Safari and Opera Mobile. Its based on WebKit like Android or iPhone but not as polished. BB will have this soon as they recently bought the developer Torch.<br><br>-Skyfire: Very good browser the only one in my opinion that has a desktop level experience. Streams music and video great. Doesnt zoom and scroll as smooth as Opera Mobile or Safari.<br><br>-IE6: Works surprisingly good its just too slow for everyday. I find it to be the most stable of any high level phone browser including WebKit. Renders pretty good. Must have a wm6.5 phone or upgade to an unofficial rom<br><br>So you should have a good experience if you try these out.. best of all they are all free!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[teknikkle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 21st 2009 1:38AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Possible new Windows Mobile 7 mockups give 6.5 a well-deserved spanking]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/20/possible-new-windows-mobile-7-mockups-give-6-5-a-well-deserved-s/</guid><description><![CDATA[Holy cow there's full names and office numbers in that pic.

I have used it for a few months now. I noticed that When you have a lot of programs running it doesn’t lag. There are some good features that Microsoft introduced into Windows 7.
