Well, just a couple tidbits…

No Zune 2 For You!
Today is a sad day. With the rumors of multiple retail chains putting the Zune 2 out on the shelves early and me being the geek that I am, I went on a mission to get myself one. I failed. I had on employee at one of the 4 places I stopped confirm that they know that they shouldn’t be out yet. The other 3 people I talked to had zero clue. Target’s Display was quite bare in anticipation. Oh well.

David Pogue Whines About Windows Mobile Again…
In his typical fashion, David Pogue hammers the T-Mobile Shadow based on his dislike for the Windows Mobile OS. I could sit here for 30 minutes debating 33-50% of his “complaints”, but rather than that (since I don’t have the time at this moment), I will let you read his “article”. Reaching for Apple, Falling Short. Does the title of this “article” give you any clues?

He has my quote of the month in this one though…

Frankly, Windows Mobile 6 is a mess. Common features require an infinitude of taps and clicks, and the ones you need most are buried in menus. Apparently the Windows Mobile 6 team learned absolutely nothing from Windows Mobile 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Yes, I am a Windows Mobile Device MVP and I am quite biased towards Windows Mobile, but when I look at phones with other operating systems, I accept that I am unfamiliar with that OS and don’t hold my inability to navigate through the OS against the device. Speaking of other operating systems, I am trying out the Nokia N95 as my phone. The camera is awesome, that’s all I have right now.
