The topic of this discussion is precisely why I now have an iPhone. My son now has my dash. I haven't missed my dash even a little and there are times I will mess with the dash for old times sake and I can't believe now very outdated the OS feels. Would I ever go back to a WM device? You bet I would, but not until they give it a major ( and I mean major) overhaul. They need to redesign the entire OS and make it much more user friendly. I can hand my iPhone to just about anyone and they can figure it out within no time and yet it does just about everything my dash was able to do - some more and some less. My non-tech savvy friends and family almost always got confused by my dash. Those same people actually want an iPhone. My iPhone even with 2.0.1 is much more stable than my dash and seems faster. Safari is waaaaay better than PIE. I have just about all the apps I want including an electronic wallet, Bible, games, and some other cool apps. The only thing I really want on the iPhone is an office suite. Then it will be totally complete. Viewing pics, movies, and listening to music is far superior. I really hope MS figures out a way to get us excited again.
