Question
-
I am a new WM 6.5 user on the Omani 2. I have read though this forum and have lost all confidence in WM. I have a revolutionary idea to contribute... Could someone please tell me what actually works in WM???? A simple list and how to would be great. I am most interested in streaming live radio and recording it as well. (NCH has a good program for this on my WXP desktop system) Should I just bag this phone now before I waste my time figuring it out??? Thanks for all your comments. (I hope someone actually reads this).Wednesday, March 10, 2010 2:29 PM

What phone you use is a personal decision. There are so many different devices that offer a variety of form factors and each has thier good (and bad) points. I like Windows Mobile devices (now called Windows Phone) because for me, they do everything I want easily and efficiently.
I'm not going to spend time trying to convince anyone to use Windows Mobile, it is like trying to say Chocolate Ice Cream is better than Strawberry. It is a personal choice; but I will give you a link to a decent article that you might like and would also reccomemd you look at part 1 of the article as well to read a users perspective on a different phone.

You talk about wanting to stream music so maybe something like this will suit your needs:

Streaming TV might also be a need as well:
