I actually remember the first windows CE handhelds, they had their reset buttons hidden in the battery compartment. It had to be resetted often, and it was a pain to access the button.
Then version 2.0 came out, with an impovement! Not that the OS became more stable, but device manufacturers moved the reset buttons from the covered battery compartment to a more accessible place on the back side of the machine.
Version 2.11 - even more improvement: the reset button is now part of the keyboard (see a HP Jornada 680 or 720!)
I think Microsoft OS for phones is just a joke. I can imagine seeing blue screens when I'm trying to answer an important call...

Yeah, right! I don't believe a word Sendo say anymore.
About 2 months ago they told me carphone warehouse had them on their UK site as "coming soon"... see if you can find it - it aint there!
The SPV looks OK though, not quite a nice as the Sendo IMHO, but if they actually release the thing I will be having a look.

I've been thinking about the new MS software for phones, and I know it may have bugs and teh such, but I feel its a step in teh right direction! We are finally starting to get more useful and standard features.
When I glance at my phones screen I want to see all the info. Like time, signal, battery, email, sms, mms, appointments, notes. I know something similar can be set up on the Samsung T100, so when u open the phone the stuff is there for u. But on my T68, all I have is a clock (which i know many of you hate), and if you press a button to get rid of the clock, the display is still not too informative!
I say mobile phones start to get a common interface, where we can install ourselves, making them more like pocket pc's.
