According to a TreoBlast article: "Windows Mobile is losing it' market share". It's a real shame because Microsoft was in a dominant position. See http://treo.pdablast.com/articles/2009/8/2009816-Windows-Mobile-losing-marketshare.html In the past when ever I was asked for the best OS device that is the closest match to a PCs Microsoft Office: Outlook Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes, Word & Excel; I always recommended a Windows Mobile device or older Pocket PC. Maybe their time is running out? My latest 18 month mobile contract with Orange started off with a new Samsung Omnia running WM6 but sadly after a few months I just didn't want to use it any more as my primary device :-( I didn't get on with the touch screen. I then picked up an iPod Touch and used that for the next few months (thinking I'd get an iPhone), then a few months ago I got a Blackberry 8120 Pearl and now an 8820 which is excellent! I'm getting so fond of my 8820 that I'm already looking for Blackberry options upon contract renewal in 10 months. I strongly think that my ideal PDA must have a good sized QWERTY keyboard.
I and I'm sure many PDA veterans (well I'm proud to be one of the oldest! Started with a Psion CM 20 years ago) would still use a new Psion that was about the size of a Revo if it had a colour touch screen, Wi-Fi, sync'd with Office and has good RAM; I can but dream :-)
