Phones
John Lambert just got the t616. It’s definitely a cool phone. One of our dev leads has the t616 and used the built-in camera to reduce his Akira movie poster to a background for the phone. I had the t68 before switching to Pocket PC phone last year, and found the SE design to be just as usable as Nokia.
But the big trend right now at MSFT seems to be the Motorola smartphone. My wife got hers about two weeks ago, and one of the topics of conversation at today’s dimsum was the problems that people have had getting AT&T to switch their accounts over. Again, it’s a really cool phone, but I cannot understand why people want a smartphone when they can use the Pocket PC as a phone instead. From my (admittedly limited) use of the smartphone I definitely prefer the PPC.
