No, WindowsMobile 5 stinks as badly as Windows 3.11. I am not even
talking about ugly icons. The main troubles are speed (or rather the
lack of), and intuitiveness (and again the lack of it).

Tasks that require two taps onmy Newt take three taps on my Palm and
at least six taps on my WindowMobile phone

Which explains why I desperately pursue getting NewtonOS running on
my PDA :-)
