Windows Mobile is better than you think

Regular readers here know that I am a fan of the Windows Mobile operating system, even though that is not necessarily a popular opinion since it isn't the flashiest and newest OS. I have talked about the strengths of Windows Mobile quite a bit and was pleased to see my friend and MoTR cohost, James Kendrick, post a fair comparison article between Android and Windows Mobile. James takes a look at multi-tasking, available apps, user interface, and computer desktop integration. It was refreshing to see James award the advantage to Windows Mobile in 3 of 4 areas with the last one being a tie.

I have said this same thing to folks regarding the Symbian S60 platform too. While S60 and Windows Mobile are not the freshest and most exciting platforms, they are still extremely functional and useful. I personally also find the S60 platform to be much more stable than anything out there and is just runs and runs without issues. All four of the areas James listed are also strong for Symbian devices.
