Take a look at this image shared by Gerardo Dada of the current Windows Mobile phone line-up:
Yeah, that’s an amazing list of products. Yeah, the iPhone is making everybody look bad, but I love the choice and variety of the Windows Mobile lineup, and the versatility these devices have that Apple has chosen not include with their phone.
Who has the best?
AT&T pictured phones are:
Samsung Blackjack II - $50 on Amazon
Pantech Duo (seperate slide out keyboard and keypad) - free
Motorola Q9H - $50
AT&T Tilt - $175 (after $25 rebate)
Samsung Blackjack - free
Palm Treo 750 - $175
T-Mobile:
Shadow - not available on Amazon, $150 at T-Mobile stores
Wing - $50 (after $100 rebate)
Dash - free (after $100 rebate)
Sprint:
Motorola Q9c - $200 (wrongly pictured by Gerardo is the Q9h, also available is the original Q for $100 with a $200 rebate, or -$100 after rebate)
Mogul - free (after $100 rebate)
HTC Touch - $250
Verizon:
Samsung i760 - $200
Verizon VX6800 - not at Amazon, $350 at Verizon stores
Treo 700wx - $400 (also
Treo 700w for $350)
Motorola Q Music 9m - $50 (after $100 rebate)
Verizon SMT5800, not yet available or priced
I think the best lineup is either at T-Mobile (which has only three phones, but great versions of the slide-out keyboard PDA, consumer smartphone, and business Q-type) or Sprint (which has a free slide-out PDA, great Q, and the only one with the Touch). AT&T’s lineup is too quirky, filled with Q-types, plus the dual slider, but they do have a cheap Palm. Verizon’s lineup is pathetic and too expensive.
When my contract runs out, I’m either getting a T-Mobile Wing and Shadow (for my wife), or Sprint Touch/Mogul and the Palm Centro (again, for the wife). What are you looking at?
