Really is a personal call. There is 1 700P, 2 Centros and 1 800W in the house. I prefer the Palm OS and enjoy the Centro; however, due to the amount of usage my devices receive during the day, I really wanted a device capable of multi-tasking. I have had a few WM phone/PDAs and did not like any of them. The 800W though keeps the style of device I like. What I do not like about WM is that it is not one-handed in many respects and that to accomplish the same steps that POS does requires a few more key presses to acomplish the same result. The 800W also has an alarm issue - sometimes it sounds, sometimes it does not. The GPS requires cell phone service, it works ok though. Battery life is not the best, but I am getting 6 hours before a charge is required. Stabilitiy - hands down a winner there. What I cannot get with WM that I had with POS - call recordining capability; the recording of phone calls cannot be done. Email: not a real problem. If one is a ChatterEmail user, then FlexMail is the one to look at - PUSH/IDLE IMAP works very well with that application.
