This is a VERY helpful review. Thanks for producing the reliable kind of reporting that Thoughts has become known for.

I have a confession...

I've been a WinMob guy ever since the first PPCs came out in 2000 and I swore I would never get an iPhone (or an iPod, for that matter). But, here I am: I've had an iPod for over a year and upgraded my WinMob phone to a plain 'ol iPhone 3G just a few days ago. I realize now that there are a few things I'll miss out on by not paying the extra bucks for a 3Gs, but...

WOW!!!

Moving from an AT&T Tilt to an iPhone 3G was amazing enough for me! It's thinner, works great with an on-screen keyboard, has wonderful intelligence when it comes to correcting my poor typing, has MUCH better battery life, etc. etc. etc.

About the only shortfall I've seen so far is that, even though there are a gazillion iPhone apps out there (and some are truly cool), there aren't nearly as many really powerful, complex apps as I have found for my WinMob devices over the years. When I stopped to think about it, though, 99% of the apps I need/use are very basic, anyway.

Anyway, I guess I need to know how many "Hail Bills" I need to say as I confess my wandering from all ways Microsoft. I haven't forsaken Microsoft, of course, and I still face Seattle each morning as I boot my Vista-enabled notebook PC, but part of me feels guilty for already loving my iPhone as much as I do.
