I've given up a month here and month there and love being off twitter. :)

I like the hardware much more than the Fuze. Thinner. It is heavier though, but it's a metal casing. I'm just not all that happy with Android.

Well, we don't even use an xBox 360 anymore. My son and wife wanted the Wii... they got it. My daughter wanted a PS3... she got it. :)

Zunepass - I covered this as you indicated.

WinMo - I am out of love, but I am really excited to see if WinMo 7 can pull me out of my funk. I am really disappointed in Microsoft. I don't like what I am seeing in progression. Other platforms are putting their all into their product and while the others are dropping update after update, we are still waiting. Microsoft is too slow with updates. I know the logistics and can understand many things that have been explained, but it doesn't fix things.

Microsoft needs to do 3 things to get back into the public's graces in my opinion.
1. Faster, more frequent updates.... preferably over the air.
2. Better software store. Stop dicking around the devs and kiss their asses. Make it easier and cheaper to get develop for WinMo. Apple's app store is really good and if Microsoft wants to compete at the OS level, they have to get devs excited to develop for WinMo again. If they don't, it's game over.
3. kill Zune and merge the platforms... ZUNE PHONE or a WinMo Phone with Zune software. I know, I know... this is what they seem to be working towards... good. It's got to be done.

I have no animosity towards Microsoft. I am not lashing out. My opinions and my writings are all my own feelings. I defending the slow nature of OS updates for so long it became second nature. I have to use things that make CHRIS happy. Trust me, I want Microsoft to woo me once again.. I want them to succeed.

This help? :)

I'm not sure what your beef is with my choice to use and iPhone now, but if the snide comments continue, I will have to block your IP man. I have ignored them long enough. People make personal choices based on what best suits them and believe it or not, like it or not, the iPhone does it for me. Thanks. Can you respect this?

Nothing. I just don't use my Zune much anymore. I own a lot of music legally too so it suffices when I use the Zune when cutting grass or something. In my office, I use Pandora now.

Re: iPhone Bits – iPhone overtakes WinMo, New OS Versions coming soon?

You reply to this as if I were some Apple fan boy. Since you obviously don't know better, I will just assume that you know very little about me.

As sad as this might sound, she probably doesn't even know the URL of this site. :)

Re: Nooks are shipping now…

Yes, I did get a tracking number, but It didn't show today. It's stuck in "pick up" status.

Re: HTC Passion Real, Running Android 2.1 and T-Mobile Bound?

Chris Leckness — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 10:01:10 -0000

I agree on the bogus label. I rarely even check anymore since most of them end up being bogus.

Re: HTC 2010 Roadmap Leaks? Is it real?

Chris Leckness — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 22:55:36 -0000

I know man. It's got to suck to consistently keep losing info out the back door. I sometimes feel bad sharing info, but when it gets out, it's discussion worthy. To be 100% honest, I wish HTC, Microsoft, and any other company could keep better wraps on their plans. It really sucks learning something about a product through unofficial means. What's worse is when something leaks that I have an written or verbal NDA on, my hands are tied at that point.

Re: Mobilitysite’s 7th Anniversary is coming soon! Contests!!!

Nope Nope! Not gonna give that one away. Sowwy.

Should be fixed now. 7 is so damn touchy. Found a random tag that my late night eyes must have missed.

The old layout showing most of the content is gone, but like I said about, I am going to craft an alternative view to appease those that would rather see that style. Also mentioned above, the new layout offers more content at the finger tips for you to find. Believe this or not, 80% of the entry into the site is a single post these days. We'll try to make everyone happy in the long run.

I agree with that, most of that stuff is a no brainer.
