Personally, I think it's kinda fun that the typical features work well, while there's still plenty of geeking to be done with the thing.

I also personally am thrilled to death that the Internet Tablets don't resemble Windows Mobile in the least bit. Again, personal preference.

Yeah, the "geeking" certainly charmed me too.
And IT2008 DOES address some of the nagging buried menus or running programs, and silly nonsensical stylus-centric use for a passive touchscreen! Why not an onscreen thumb-board? Why is my memory full? Etc.
Of course there are solutions for these issues on WM devices. But again, it's all in preference of GUI. To me, they both have great appearance but I'd edge more towards IT2008.

Unfortunately, I've had a bad experience overall due to unreliability and the general newb difficulties offered all over this forum. People like you are what keeps things in some sense of order in here, trying to help out rather than lash out. I appreciate this greatly.
