After the end of the day when I log off my computer, the last thing I need is another windows based computer in my hand. So I prefer Symbian. More fun to me.

You are missing the point my friend. WM is just as fast as that with superior multitasking. Have you even used wm5?

I use windows and I don't feel this way at all. All devices have problems and advantages, it comes down to choice of interface as to what phone you prefer.

All this arguing over which is best is a crock. Maybe your work computer is a crash monkey, then I suggest you get better tech support rather than jump on the windows bashing bandwagon (you are not bashing microsoft, you are personally attacking those of us who use prefer to use windows).

I've seen dodgy operators bring down mac machines, windows machines, symbian phones, wm phones and s60. I've seen it all. I've been sysadmin for networks with both apple and windows machines (on the same network even), and the simple fact is any os will run stable if you set it up right. If you don't then any OS can be a pig.

If you stated it as a preference for UI, then I wouldn't have a problem, but you imply that windows is substandard, and since I don't find my windows (phone or pc) to be substandard, or any that I maintain (which is my job) I can only wonder why it is you do?

If people act superior about mac or symbian (or wm for that matter), without giving informed logical arguments, just saying completely uninformed statements such as "bet you can't do that on wm", then expect me to say something.....

@max_wedge, totally agree with you. I'm hoping to see more constructive comments like yours in this thread.

Just need to see something similar on the WM, then I will believe ya. No offense taken, or anything. It's just that seeing is believing.

Since now u have seen the P990i in action, can you post a similar demo video of a WM device?

My point is that when I use my WM (actually not even wm5 but ppc2003) I don't have any issues with speed.

A two minute video of some thing the phone does well, doesn't prove it is faster. Like a magic trick, it's what's not shown that reveals the trick, not what is shown.

Now if you want to do a point to point comparo on WM5/Symbian UIQ3 on equivalent power devices, that's more meaningful, but to be honest I don't care that much about it. Too much effort

I stand by my view that the video proves nothing.

I can task switch just as quickly in my ppc, and the wm5's I've used are much quicker.

Not much point with a discussion like this. It's like arguing whether coffee or tea is better.

But then, OS religious wars have been raging since computers started becoming widespread. I remember back in the 80s when the war was raging between the VAX/VMS and UNIX camps. And not to mention Commodore Amiga vs Atari!

there is always a point to discussions like this because it makes knowledge avalable to the "opposition" that might make them think twice about their choice and/or at least enlighten them

btw, as an IT guy for 25 working almost exclusively on VAX/VMS but sometimes using unix on the side... give me VMS any day! I'm doing a contract writing C on VMS even now as we speak!
