Windows Mobile Smartphones – As Good as a Pocket PC?

I was pleasantly surprised while Googling today to find several articles which changed my outlook on Smartphones. I always thought before "Who wants a WM Smartphone? It’s inferior as you can’t do anything without a touchscreen." Well, I got totally bashed in my thinking after reading and finding out that WM Smartphones are just as good if not better (in areas of durability) than WM PPC Phones. In addition, I learned from The Mobile Enthusiast how to run PPC applications on a Smartphone.
In any case, The Mobile Enthusiast has these interesting articles which I believe are well worth reading:
- How to Run Pocket PC Applications on the Smartphone
- What is Smartphone Edition Anyway?
- Why I Like the Smartphone Platform Part 1
- Why I Like the Smartphone Platform Part 2

Excellent articles; will definitely link them in from my next all-in-one Smartphone articles.
Also note that I’ve published a LOT of never-before-published Smartphone compliance info in my later articles; for example, in my just-published article on emulating HP calculators.

Nice find Timothy.
I found this one looking for copy/paste for my BlackJack. Just started playing with it. Still in Alpha but looks very impressive.
