Where I went, and what I saw!
I just took a trip to Little Rock, AR and whenever I go somewhere I always take a visual inventory of the devices people are carrying in the airports and the conferences I go to. So I went to the Portland airport, Denver airport, and Little Rock airport as well as my conference in Little Rock which consisted of about 200 educators. I have to admit that the device I saw the most is the Blackberry, especially the Curve and the 8800. I also saw quite a few Treos though not as many as I used to. The device I am seeing more and more is of course the iPhone, but the good news is that I saw many more Windows devices than I did on my trip last summer. Most of these were Windows Mobile Professional devices like the Tilt and the Wing. I didn't see as many standard smartphones (non touch screen) as I thought I would. Last summer I took my Dash to St. Louis but I hardly saw any devices other than Blackberries and Treos. I wonder why BB's are still so popular? Windows Mobile has Exchange with push email and in my opinion, more powerful business like apps. What do you think it will take to make Windows Mobile devices the business man's or woman's device of choice? Now I know that many of you travel way more than I do, so what devices do you mostly see out there?
