The Windows Mobile Interface
Posted by Jerry Raia in "Smartphone Talk" @ 03:30 PM
"So this entry started as a simple post about how Laptop Mag [via Ciccone] has scored an interview with HTC CEO Peter Chou about HTC's plans for 2008. It's turned into an analysis of why I think the Windows Mobile interface works (and doesn't work) the way that it does and ends with 5 suggestions for Microsoft to improve it. Sometimes these things just sneak up on you."
This article highlights a lot of things that also frustrate me more and more with the Windows Mobile Interface. WM has been around long enough that it should have evolved by now into something better. Ironically it is the Smartphone interface that is less frustrating to use then the Pocket PC interface (and yes, I prefer to call them that, rather than the moronic Standard and Professional monikers). It doesn't seem like anyone at Microsoft is listening to anything these days. If they do not start, they will be swept away in the WM arena.
