apples or oranges?

there are pros and cons of using either platform. and i must say they're offering pretty much the same. so its upto u to decide.

Like to use Symbian but I must accept that PocketPC spread as a virus in mobile devices making more programmers work in apps for that OS. Last year Ive seen an important number of new app n utils, I hope Symbian and mainly UIQ survive to Microsoft monster.

The first Windows Pocket PC device to tempt me is the MPx-300 and that attraction is great. I have used only Symbian till date and find it very capable, so I still lean towards the Symbian camp naturally.

I prefer Symbian but I'd like to see more manufacturers come out with headsets.
From Nokias to an SE to whatever.

I've had the opportunity to use both OS. Both of them tend to crash in the most opportune time . But I'd say that Symbian is a just 'bit' more stable that Windows.
INTEGRITY

Without it...
Everything else is irrelevant.
