“However, the iPhone SDK is coming. They will eventually be able to do everything that a Windows Mobile device can do. The SDK will also enable Flash… can Windows Mobile do that?”

iPhone SDK came out a loooong time ago and there’s still no support for flash on iPhone.

Windows Mobile crappy interface allows consumers to turn it into something good. There is already freelance software development for Windows Mobile anyways. SDK is the same as software development for windows mobile. This SDK thing is stupid. Either software development is allowed or not allowed.

Next even if iPhone has software development, it can only go so far because iPhone OS is designed for people who are looking for simplicity and when you have to develop software for simple OS than your software isn’t going to go very far.

I have HTC touch running Windows Mobile and looked at the iPhones today at the apple store. Wow: very stylish, very elegant… Great for cartoons and games and music (the HTC stores music as well, thought). But I was very surprised that you cannot manage any tasks in the iPhone, nor can you add notes to a calendar item. Not to mention having no bluetooth. So as far as productivity is concerned I’m happy with my HTC, but I can see how the WOW factor of iPhone’s user interface has people pretty excited. Chris’s 18-minutes of raving here also seems high on WOW and low on substance. It would be nice if Chris would do a comparison of the two products blow-by-blow. He does concede that Windows mobile has more “features” and it would be nice to show us what those are, and how they are relevant to getting work done rather than how cool a Batman video looks on screen.

Windows Mobile is terrible. Don’t even bother trying it. Stick with iPhone or Blackberry. http://www.windowsmobilesucks.com

F*** man im confused
just why do better things have to come out so soon after something that was good becomes ‘that was so yesterday’

Personally I think arguing about which phone is better is pointless. It is obvious that people look for different things in phones and therefore will prefer one phone over the other. I would like to point out a few things though…

1.) I’ve NEVER met an unsatisfied iphone customer.
2.) I’ve studied productivity for over 10 years and BOTH phones are adequate for the purposes of getting things done. (yes, the iphone is included in the word BOTH)
3.) The iphone does NOT provide certain things that are crucial to certain people (such as corporate email)
4.) Being a mac product, the iphone isn’t compatible with certain computing needs…like connecting to 64 bit and whatnot (although not connecting to vista is a weak argument…nothing seems to work with vista).

I personally give the edge to the iphone (mostly because I prefer not to struggle to get things done). However, I think it is obvious that there is no clear winner, because everyone is judging on different criteria.

Install Point UI and you get ease of use, style, AND the ability to install whatever the heck you want on the damn thing.

Windows Mobile also makes more sense if you use Windows (either by choice or circumstance) on your main computer, because it offers instant synchronization with whatever Windows products you’re stuck using.

The iPhone isn’t worth it to me until it’s basically a mini OSX.
