Windows Mobile, No Hard Feelings, But I'm Taking My Talents to Android

Windows Mobile, No Hard Feelings, But I'm Taking My Talents to Android

I installed Android on my HD2 a couple weeks ago. Initially, I thought I would continue to use Windows Mobile 6.5 as my main OS, but just hop into Android once in a while for games and apps not available in WM.

HTC's Sense UI runs on top of Windows Mobile 6.5 on the HD2, providing a better UI and convenient shortcuts to Windows Mobile apps. It's finger-friendly and hides most of WM 6.5's software and interface flaws. Sense UI is a slick and mostly well thought-out interface, but it has a few shortcomings of its own. On the home tab, the first screen you see when you power up the phone, the quick links to your favorite apps are limited to nine; the calendar contains only one entry; and there's no task list. Co0kie's Home Tab (CHT) fills these voids.

Ever since I saw the specs on HTC's HD2 several months ago, I wanted to get it - 1GHz processor, 5MP camera, and 4.3" screen. You see, my contract with T-Mobile then was done, so I was looking for a new phone to replace my ancient T-Mobile MDA. I had that phone for four years which, in cell phone years, is a lifetime.
