There has been a lot of shuffling going on around this game. Android is making some big splashes. Windows Mobile in some eyes has done a belly flop with their 6.5 release. Palm Pre seems to be drowned out by others. Apple is sitting in the Lifeguard chair saying nobody is going to catch them. RIM and Nokia are still out there too. Nokia’s recent offerings are causing me to get interested and the Blackberry Storm 2 seems to be nice as well.

I posted yesterday asking for some input on why some of our readers have jumped ship on WinMo and gone to the iPhone. I am amazed at the response. I have gotten 16 comments and 20+ emails explaining their flight so far. This makes me wonder just how many converts there are out there. I decided this morning that it’s poll time.

As I said yesterday, I am not jumping ship on any one Mobile OS. I plan to cover, test, and enjoy all of them in what I do here. I also plan to give other Mobile OS platforms a better look than I used to. I now carry an iPhone 3GS as my primary device, but this could change at some point. I think that Andoid is making the most waves in this market right now and I hate to say it, but I think that Andoid will sink WebOS and grab many WinMo folks in the process. Android 2.0 looks very nice and Google’s push behind this can’t hurt one bit. I am concern that they might end up with the same issues that some have with Windows Mobile though. Too many choices. The beauty of the iPhone is the OS is updated often and Apple doesn’t have to wait on other OEMs and Carriers to “approve and update” their devices.

Please take a moment to vote in the poll above. Thanks!
