Ones that I want that are running windows mobile / windows CE though are the HTC Touch Diamond and the HTC Touch Pro. If the pro comes out soon, I will get it, if not I am getting the Touch Diamond soon.

The g1 lacks in design also, its not as attractive as an iphone, but the iphone isnt attractive either, the HTC's opn the other hand are gorgeous. Also the G1 could have been more creative in the OS department, too plain for my taste, the mp3 player is mondane, and the main menu is kinda plain, its 2008 and with the iphone out there they really need to step up their game, if you could post screen shot of the menu, w a background then my statement would be false, all the pics ive seen are just a black back drop, too plain. Maybe the g2 will actually give the iphone a run for its money, you just cant beat having an ipod, with coverflow, on a phone!

i could change it at any tie if i felt like it
but the more color teh background has
the faster teh bat drains
hence y apple keeps the background black

they brought this phone out to compete directly with blackberry and iphone but they are lacking the biggest component to compete with those devices and that is the ability to access corporate email. so for me it can have all the cool features it does but it would be worthless to me bcuz it lacks that access i would need.
