Hey Confucious,
What you have just written could just have been my own post!
You and I probably knew each other as one of the more vocal and die hard winmo advocates all the way back to our beloved HTC Athena. I too laughed at anyone saying that iPhone is able to challenge winmo or even come close.
Until another well recognised and respected winmo forum leader Mackabay (still remember him? The guy who started the first Athena Custom ROM project?) posted on the HTC HD forum saying that he has also switched over. That's when I begin to seriously research on whether all my winmo applications could be replaced if I move to iPhone.
The rest is history.
BTW, I would also jump to the best OS in the market at anytime. That's why I spent so much time playing on an Android phone lately to understand in more details what this new platform is like.
I can say with full confidence that iPhone has no match still ATM.

Of course I remember Mackabay! Just went to check xda-developers and the forums seem to be down.
I gave my Athena to the AP Team, I did like the way we could modify the ROMs. In it's day WinMo was great but it's very dated now and with 7 being put back I think it will probably be too little too late.
Android shows promise but not there yet. Nokia are doping Symbian on their high end phones and going Linux so that might be worth checking out, but for now, I'm happy with the iPhone
He who asks a question looks foolish for 5 minutes. He who doesn't ask a question remains foolish forever.

After submerging my 3GS in a mug of iced tea and deciding I would not spend 599 on a new one I decided to try the Droid while my phone dried out. The Droid is a nice phone and the display kicks *** but its still no iPhone IMO and damned sure not a jailbroken iPhone. I cannot at this point stream Sirius to it so its not gonna work for me. My iPhone seems to be doing fine at this point and I think Ill keep it. If down the road it corrodes and fails.. then Ill likely move back to the Droid.
