T-Mobile Pulse released; HTC Tattoo date set

[starbuck]

Win mob 6.5 is a big step forward. From what I hear, win mob 7 is coming out next year and that will be THE big competitor to android and iphone(supposedly blow them away).

6.5 is a lot more user friendly than prev versions, I've been testing it for at least 6 months now and it has changed a lot in that time, so much so it is now my main OS, I won't go back to 6.1.

I'm looking at new phones at the moment. I don't think android is mature enough yet(it will be in about a year or so) and I can't stand iphone(like all things apple, I think they're style over substance, not bad at what they do but they don't do much), so am looking at a windows mobile phone. 2 choices(unless other phones are coming out soon) the touch pro 2 or the xperia X2. X2 is looking good but even vodafone said they won't get any dummys in store until a week before release in november. Touch pro 2 is gorgeous.

i thought Sony Ericsson XPERIA X3 is windows mobile?

[Bunjiweb]

The Palm Pre is not android, dunno how that crept in....

The Sony X3 ("Rachael") is indeed Android, the X2 which is about to be released is based on WinMo 6.5, personally I think the X3 looks far superior and Sony seem to have been doing a great job at putting their own skin on top of stock android, search YouTube for it.

No. XPERIA is going Android-only after the X2

[Grey M@a]

The X3 is looking like the next android I will be looking at. Will still wait till I can get hands on with it and see what else is out there when I am due the upgrade.
