201MHz? really..lol even by 2007 standards that is bad.

I recommend using it as little as possible, that way you don't risk people seeing you actually have such a crappy phone and thereby lower yourself in their eyes. Treat it like a skunk in your pocket.

Web OS is by all means and intents dead, regardless of whatever Necrophilia HP attempts.

Blackberry is a drowning ship that just happens to have a 'cool factor' that hasn't quite worn off thanks to those users addicted yet completely oblivious to how outdated the phones actually are.

Symbian is an outdated OS that refuses to die

Windows phone 7 is immature, remains to be seen.

iOS is mature and has a large stable marketshare with one of Americas biggest corporations behind it, and the biggest developer base by orders of magnitude.

Android is the most logical choice for phone makers, financially and logistically, widespread, and the only major competitor to iOS that doesn't rely on vertical integration.


Might I enquire how much you paid for your windows mobile Sinbad?

My wife and I got our phones for $20 Canadian total... and given that her's is a piece of junk I'll say the $20 was mostly for mine.

Also I got nethack and a decent version of minesweeper on it now. I've already died from kicking a wall, trying to disarm a rockfall trap, eating a spoiled corpse and getting poisoned.

Also Also, in case you were curious

we got the phones for $20
we had to get sim cards and activate them on the network, $35*2
had to give them $100 each because we are a high credit risk (but this will be refunded after a term or if we cancel our service)
No contract but $50 a month shared plan including:
-200 shared anytime minutes (35c a minute after that)
-free calls between phones and free nights (after 9pm) and weekends
-unlimited free texting

I should get an iphone one day. Then I could look at pictures on my phone too.
