Windows Mobile 6.5 does not deliver

Ja, I was seriously disappointed with Windows Mobile 6.1. Was hoping for a nice upgrade with 6.5... but I guess not. :(
 
MS have been pretty up front about the fact that they've abandoned WM 6 and its derivatives... WM 7 is what they're focusing on atm.

Personally I dislike WM, but from what I've seen of WM7... its a pretty big step in the right direction
 
Windows Mobile 7 is just more vapourware. MS is all about selling vapourware, they bash whatever good competition there is and dazzle naive people (together with shill pundits) they promote features for upcoming releases of products - features which are either non-existent or half baked when they finally arrive. At least this time - the people aren't falling for the MS hype and not abandoning Android, Apple OS or even Symbian.

MS is probably just the most incompetent big software company ever.
 
Don't try fathom it Gecko...

Peter just has an all consuming hatred for MS... even when they do amazing things.
 
WM 6.5 is better than WM6 on most accounts. WM 6 was slow, laggy and looked like sh*te, my phone feels like a whole new phone with 6.5 loaded. It isn't perfect though..
 
The issue is not DOES WINDOWS MOBILE DELIVER it should be DOES MICROSOFT EVER DELIVER? :rolleyes:

Microsoft has become the biggest multi-national company providing poor, expensive & unstable software and yet we continue to support them. So lets not be surprised that once again Microsoft has supplied us with a operating system that has bugs and short comings. history just repeats it self.
 
Does Microsoft Deliver?

You clearly haven't played with SQL Server 2008, Windows Server 2008, Powershell, Gemini... the list goes on and on....
 
What would you classify as real software by real developers then?

and please don't mention things like Oracle etc... thats not real software at all.. its just manky rubbish :D

*cough*OSS*cough*
 
Yeh - MS is useless, useless products, useless staff, useless company - its no wonder they became one of the least successful companies of all time, and went under right after opening their doors in 1975.
