[PDAntic] So, Microsoft - I’m throwing down the gauntlet. Prove me wrong. Make your devices easier to use. Start working with hardware manufacturers to actually market your technology.

Steve has a great rant on the current state of Pocket PC and Smartphone. In addition to the technology, one thing that the Windows Mobile group is missing is a Robert Scoble. They need someone who gets the community pumped about the devices, gets them blogging about it, and helps sell out conferences. Does anyone even know that CTIA and the Pocket PC summit are going on the week before PDC?
