Let's not forget, the whole load of navigation systems have iGo or similar software, that runs over CE. When was the last time one of those blue-screened?
My personal, anecdotal experience tells me the contrary. The two windows CE/mobile devices I had were terribly unstable, HTC Athena and MIO C230 GPS. Regarding your question, the last time my MIO C230 GPS with iGO blue-screened was about one week and a half ago, in the middle of the way to some place. Lost my way and took 5 to 10 minutes to get back en route.

My N900, on the contrary, might have its shortcomings, but it's so much more stable than these devices. I don't even worry about losing stuff, it gives me some 'peace of mind' I hadn't had before.
