    That's right. There are some fine Symbian OS based smartphones that get routinely overlooked...

    @Smiley17o: Actually, there are two HTC phones up there. HTC doesn't always brand their own handsets, FYI.

    Happily own a new iPhone 3GS. UPS got here just after 10am. Activation was smooth. As up and working within 2 minutes. Does seem a lot snappier.

    The reason they are not comparing the Bold is because its not touchscreen and its only on at&t right now so it would be too one sided towards at&t. But really other then the Storm what else does Verizon have to offer...

    @pixelpushing: Actually it should be "Where's the Symbian phones" because Nokia has other smartphones besides the N97.

    Why are no windows mobile smart phones included. M ytouch pro does everything the iphone does including turn by turn directions. Then you have the touch pro 2 also.

    You should include atleast one windows mobile smart phone on that list.

    @GodfreyOriole: Windows Mobile 6.1 isn't very modern at this point, quite honestly. We're eagerly anticipating 6.5, though.

    I take it all back. The iPhone will play nice with an Exchange server. Turn off push and fetch every 15 minutes.


    If you are having problems, they can be easily sorted out using either a brick, paving stone, cobblestone, crowbar, length of re-bar, or baseball bat to bash in your IT guy's skull. Trust me - the IT guy is the problem.


    The IT guy is ALWAYS the problem...

    @devonbowers: Some of it might have to do with the fact that my IT guy is a consultant. There is more money in prolonging the problem than in fixing it.


    @Who Shot Who in the What Now?: My Push works A-OK. But the battery drain is massive. So I fetch. Every 15 minutes is fine for me.
