SharePoint Mobile for Windows Mobile - review - part 1 of 3
November 19, 2009; [General]
New Office Mobile 2010, beta, has been just released and the main new feature of this new version is support for SharePoint. Many sites were testing new Office Mobile 2010 but nobody (as of now) has tested the most important new feature of this release: SharePoint Mobile.

It looks like SharePoint Mobile can be a differentiator that will make purchase of Windows Mobile phones worthwhile! - a reason why to buy Windows Mobile phone rather than Android or iPhone. Therefore we are reviewing here SharePoint Mobile part of Office Mobile 2010 - in details:

Microsoft takes Mac and Google Chrome more seriously than Windows Mobile
November 18, 2009; [General]
What the duck is going on? Despite many many promises, still up to this day there is no Silverlight for Windows Mobile. But latest version has just been released and it supports both Mac and Google Chrome. Not Windows Mobile though!

Silverlight is Microsoft's attempt to defeat Adobe Flash technology and version 4 brings new interesting features:

Microsoft incompetence continues: Office Mobile 2010 only for Windows Mobile 6.5
November 18, 2009; [General]
So people who have phones like HTC Diamond or HTC Touch Pro - phones with exactly the same processor as HTC Diamond2 or HTC Touch Pro2, cannot get Office Mobile 2010:

Microsoft leaks Windows Mobile 7 screenshot by accident on microsoft.com website?
November 18, 2009; [General]
On a page which lists advantages of Office Mobile 2010, on Microsoft's main website (see link below!), Microsoft posted screen shot of something that looks like Windows Mobile 7:



The link where you can find this screen shot (it's still up) is here:

Microsoft incompetence continues: Office Mobile 2010 Beta - with SharePoint Mobile - released but not really
November 18, 2009; [General]
Update: it's possible that this app is for Windows Mobile 6.5 only and that is why we don't see it in Marketplace on device, but still we have purchased it on website where it is noted that we own HTC Diamond so Marketplace should notice it and not offer it to us on website!

We can't stand how incompetent Microsoft employees are. If you browse Marketplace through browser you can pick and "buy" (it's free, so "mark as purchased") Office Mobile 2010 (see link below!) but if you open Marktplace on US market, inside of the device, it is not visible - neither in "My Applications" section nor through search or otherwise...

We are excited about Office Mobile 2010 because it is the first version that has connection to SharePoint (that server thingy that unlike laughable Windows Mobile division brings many billions of pure profit yearly to Microsoft), but due to incompetent employees of Windows Mobile division we cannot test it:

At last, good news for Windows Mobile: Opera Mobile 10 browser is out, we have tested it!
November 18, 2009; [with touch-screen]
We have already tested it (as under embargo it was available already yesterday; embargo was lifted today 8:00 AM CET):



... and it looks smoother, is more finger-friendly, and feels much faster! The only disadvantage we could spot is lack of Flash support but after all it's Adobe's not Opera's product and Opera Mobile 10 (and earlier versions) support Flash if it is installed on the device.

Ray Ozzie, Chief Software Architect at Microsoft, proves his incompetence about smartphone apps
November 17, 2009; [General]
How deep can Microsoft fall? It looks like there is no bottom. Today, at PDC conference for developers, Ray Ozzie said, that smartphone apps will not be a differentiator among smartphones.

Jesus Christ, oh my God, this guy is so incompetent! (in area of smartphones). He also said:

Review of Acer neoTouch S200 - supercheap Windows Mobile phone with 1GHz processor - published
November 13, 2009; [General]
If you don't believe in that multi-touch thingy but you would like to have all the speed, then go for Acer S200!

Acer has purchased E-TEN corporation that was making touchscreen phones powered by Windows Mobile for years (actually as long as HTC was doing it) but unfortunately Acer S200 shares main disadvantage of E-TEN phones - relatively low quality. We know that one can buy cheap headphones of high quality for 20-30 bucks so why Acer has placed a low-quality speaker in S200?:

Detailed review of HTC HD2 from O2 UK - published
November 12, 2009; [with touch-screen]
This review of HTC HD2 is so detailed, that you can almost see individual atoms inside of this phone.

So, iPhone is fast because it allows only one third-party app to run at the same time, but the problem of Windows Mobile always was that it allowed many apps in the background - what made it slow and people like Kevin Rose didn't know that there are some apps running in the background and were badmouthing Windows Mobile as utterly slow. It looks like this problem is no more - in phones with 1GHz Snapdragon processor like HTC HD2:
