I agree though, its not really worth it to buy a new phone. But if you can snag a decent custom 6.5 Rom off xda-developers for your current phone, then there really is no reason to not update.
Not to mention the 6.5 found on handsets now is indeed a beta build rushed to new handsets and there are newer beta builds out with much better layouts not found on earlier 6.5 builds.

uh, try watching EPL games while at the Bed Bath & Beyond with the lady. Try watching Ohio vs. USC while on the way to the bar. Try watching ESPN while taking that morning breather on the toilet. ETC.!!!
dont down the service because YOU find no use for it. and just because YOU dont doesnt mean others can. Maybe someones trash can be someones treasure, and in my case I do treasure it and has become a lifesaver when it comes to games, and entertainment/news updater when it comes to espn and msnbc. check yo' self.

Ho-HO! That sounds like a throw-down to me.

It's honestly just filler since WinMo 7 is taking longer than they anticipate.d Hopefully it'll be worth the wait.

I can't verify the flavor of babies, but I'm told that a mixture of hard boiled eggs and veal is the closest you'll ever find.

taco bell is better than you and all of your follicles combined into a tasty bechamel sauce with fish eyes.
and actually, the thing that most resembles the taste of baby is not hard boiled eggs and veal (a myth perpetuated by the serbs, i believe). no, in fact it is a toddler. todddlers and babies taste strikingly similar.

Here's the flat truth: The desire for backwards compatibility and penchant for code re-factoring & supplementing (without *replacing*) has lead Microsoft down a long line of bloated, slow-to-evolve, bug-ridden and code-heavy operating systems.
Windows Mobile suffers the same fate. Why, could they not, since I first purchased my Casio Cassiopeia E115 in 1998, completely scrap their code-base and develop an entirely new architecture? It's not like I could even upgrade my Samsung SCH-i730 from just a few years ago without flashing the ROM (that's assuming the manufacturer custom-coded the upgrade) to even take advantage of a compatible upgrade. Windows Mobile has forced essentially non-backwards compatible upgrades on us for years without ever actually being rearchitected to compete with its quickly evolving and improving competitors. For years ago, the big news was something like "New MS Mobile OS out soon - Who will get the ROM upgrade?" Only a precious few!
How can MS be so ridden with compromises and paradoxes? It's a victim of it's perception that all software development at every level is engineering instead of recognizing it is also a craft which requires truly motivated and inspired programmers to drive innovation. They hit it with the 360, and maybe the ZuneHD and possibly Windows 7, but they have definitely missed on Windows Mobile so far.

Of course we are waiting for 7, but 6.5 isn't that bad. The end of the reiew should read typed on an iphone.

Second, do you somehow think you have used a larger variety of phones than any of those people? Do you really think they dont understand what windows mobile is about (whatever the hell cryptic bs that means) i assume you mean, like making a phone call or failing to surf the internet?
To have such hubris that you think you have more experience than guys who probably interact with 10-15 different smart phones a day, is not only ridiculous, but it screams of an uneducated fanboy just needing to put in his jab cause someone didnt like his poor lil smartphone os made by the biggest software company on the planet who can do nothing but band-aid their old failures and sell it to you.
