1) So all of the time I was connecting to WPA2 networks (with SP2) I was really just imagining it? I'd also be incredibly impressed to see an Ubuntu install from 2001 run WPA2 out of the box, seeing as the standard wasn't even ratified until late 2004.
2) This is true, but it was also a brand new OS and a free firewall was added in SP1 only a year later.
3) and it's a good thing Linux has *never* had any exploitable vulnerabilities, right....http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/05/13/1533212
Funny, I've never had anything remotely similar happen in over 13 years of using Windows, I believe that the PEBKAC virus may have been the root cause of the error.
This will definitely go over well with the people who were mad over even small things like the BioShock phonehome fiasco...what could possibly go wrong?
Mind elaborating about what you hate with Symbian? I set up an E90 for a client who wanted the big landscape screen for showing presentations without ahaving to bring their laptop, and they went from being a huge pain to support when they had a BlackBerry to a call maybe once every two months after they switched to Symbian. While this anecdote may not cover all experiences, S60 really can't be that bad can it?
You obviously haven't used the iPhone keyboard or have fingers like bratwursts. It's surprisingly tolerant of fat fingers and typing on it isn't tough at all. I prefer it to tiny little QWERTY keyboards that really do require toothpicks to use. I use an HTC Wizard, which has a large slide out keyboard, so when I first tried the iPhone for around 45 minutes I was really not impressed. I'm firmly in the ball park of people who like tactile feedback when they're typing, it's one of reasons I tracked down an old IBM buckling spring keyboard for my PC. While there certainly are advantages to having a software keyboard, I'm not yet convinced that it is superior to a hardware keyboard on devices like the HTC Excalibur or Kaiser.
Typing on the iPhone is only easy if you have fingers the size of toothpicks and even then only in comparison to a multitap style input. If you've ever used a decent QWERTYboard or even learned to type well on T9 you know both systems blow it out of the water.
I just finished rolling out around 10 HTC devices to a Real Estate office, so I'm really getting a kick out of these replies.
Anyways, with the release of newer and cheaper devices like the Excalibur, which I believe is sold in the US as the Dash, a lot more small businesses are using them because it's more or less plug and play with the existing Exchange infrastructure. I'm not going to argue and say that WinMo can't be buggy and slow, but properly tweaked it has blown every other platform I've used out of the water, which includes Series 60, Series 80, Palm OS 5, and a BlackBerry.
More or less every WM device circa 2006 has DirectPush baked right in, AFAIK it's impossible to remove it from the OS as it's built into ActiveSync, which is the client used for syncing with the desktop.
or import HTC Wizard/HTC Apache if they are on CDMA. I left my Palm Pilot on the lawn once, I've never seen an address book so quickly corrupted by a dog in my life, no way I'm tying a 650 to the dog's neck (especially if it has an electric fence and it's a particularly stupid dog.)

And you do realize that null is different from zero?
Where's the "+1 Paranoid" mod?
I have the exact same mouse as well and its worked perfectly without installing any drivers with both XP and Vista.
Take a look at http://www.joinmicrosofteurope.com/ there are some very interesting openings with Microsoft in Ireland.
There's also the main European development center for Microsoft in Denmark if you're interested in working on CRM/ERP solutions
Definitely irony, I'd be willing to bet the article is on Fark right now with the ironic tag and the irony police haven't found issue with it yet.

This is just an upgrade to the Ameo...

I use an HTC Wizard, but the Nokia E90 or 61 have even better keyboards.
