Disheartened Loyalist
Why isn't there a Microsoft Outlook Mobile, instead of these separate,
disparate applications? I am a loyal Outlook user for all of my organization
needs, but without a true mobile version--a companion to the desktop
version--, I cannot continue to utilize Outlook any longer. If you are not
going to make a Microsoft Outlook Mobile for Windows Mobile, then there is
certainly no possibility of you ever offering it for the iPhone, so I'm going
to take my desktop organizational needs to a software program that works with
the iPhone. And guess what? When it comes time for a new computer (a “PCâ€),
I'm going to buy an Apple .PC.
And you know why I'm going to do this? Because all businesses are seeing
the NEED and developing applications to work with their site and the iPhone.
Do I see them offering an "app" for Windows Mobile? No!
I'm sorry Microsoft, I stayed with ya from the good ol' DOS days, but your
time has come and gone. It's time to let a more user friendly platform take
the stage, and that platform is Apple Macintosh with the iPhone. I will
eventually figure out how to do all the “power user†things I do on the
Microsoft platform on the Apple platform, and who knows what PDA software
will be developed for the two, but it will certainly be better than the
current offerings of one Microsoft, Inc.
