I use both Symbian and Windows mobile on two separate devices and i really prefer Symbian to WM6 tbh.

To say its garbage is jumping the gun a bit I think. Ive used it plenty. Mobile OSes biggest problems for me are that most of their features are utterly useless. But that doesnt mean its not a solid mobile OS. It will do everything it says it will do.

I will admit. There are a couple of things that I would use more on an iphone than I would on a windows mobile device. I think its because navagation on an iphone is just much easier... (no stupid stylus which I hate with a passion.)

Iphone not having active sync is more or less a deal breaker for me though. They are supposed to be coming out with active sync for iphones though.

I think Windows Mobile is great because of all the freeware and apps that you can run on it. iPhone on the otherhand is pretty lame when it comes to apps.

Speaking from a hobbyist programmer's perspective and having owned a PocketPC (before it was called Windows Mobile) device, I can say it's a very good platform. Being able to program using pretty much the same API used in desktop Windows made it really easy for me to write my own personal software for it. In my first year of college, I was "that guy" with a C/C++ compiler in his PDA.

Come to think of it, the iPhone owners probably get more chicks...

I've tried programming for my S60 once. It was a PITA and I was locked to Nokia's craptastic development tools because there were no other free alternatives that I could find (for C++ of course). For my summer OJT project we developed a little prototype app on it using Java. Java development is always easy, but J2SE is so limited.

When looking for smartphones and PDAs, I really look out for what it has to offer me as a hobbyist development platform. I hope an inexpensive Linux-based PDA would come up
