    I replaced TouchWiz with Today 2 on my Omnia i910.



    TouchWiz became annoying for me to use as a daily thing.

    Anyone else running a Verizon Omnia can find some great stuff here:

    I've also totally glommed onto the "Slide to unlock" thing. It's something I've envied the iPhone for. :)

    (Slide to Unlock 2 for the Omnia)

    Is that a T-Mobile branded Touch Diamond? The Hells?

    So maybe we don't need to wait for WM7 or whatever it's called.

    Sometimes Gizmodo seems to be very well paid by Apple. Even here, in a post that is suposedly pro WinMo, you talk about it like its crap, and how to make it less crappier.


    don be such Fanboys, how about hiring some pro WinMo writer.


    Been using it since 2003, and theres nothing compared to the power it gives me to do WHATEVER I WANT with it. And thats something no other platform can give me (maybe android in the future, but not yet)

    Cool.


    My Omnia i910 has a lot of this already.


    I did a little messing with it though.

    Great stuff!

    Gah! My Q! It weeps, it cries. Please, give it some nice implants or something. I can see the design from the back -- the Verizon Q design -- that is...the ATT one is even worse.

    Anything said on this site about phones, regardless of model or OS, is said to the people who can't or don't want to bother "Hacking" their phones.


    If you can jailbreak an iPhone, you can Cook (or load a premade) ROM to a WinMO phone and get significantly increased functionality. HTC TouchPro w/Custom ROM on VZW makes for a pretty shiny iPhone alternative that has native ActiveSync.

    @Thats Dr Bear to You:


    I'm a WMo owner from way back. I had started with casio Cassiopeia devices.


    I fear I'm going over to the darkside brother. Save me. I think I'm going to get an iPhone. I don't want to but I feel like I must. It's like they put something in my water, toothpaste, soup...


    I'm surrounded and I can't get up. HELP ME BRO!

    @GadgetGhurl: As a newbie to the WinMo game I don't know how much of a lifeline I'll be but, from my friends that have the iphone, they say that as a internet connected PDA, its great but as an actual phone it's lacking.
    One of them said they had to relearn how to hold the phone because they kept hitting buttoms with their face.

    I'm glad somebody finally wrote this article. Usually you guys just fellate Apple and talk about how shitty WinMo is. I'll admit, straight out of the box it's not anything spectacular, but with a few mods it's 100x better than that damn iPhone.

    @EstimatedProphet: Exactly. Windows Mobile has way more options to mess around with compared to the iPhone.
