Both have been loosing market share to Apple, Android and Blackberry in recent years. WindowsMobile (previously PocketPC and currently WindowsPhone) once the dominant mobile OS, yes folks before the iPhone came into power Microsoft slowly but surely killed of it’s main competitor palm OS, which was acquired by hp last year and is now barely a sliver of a shadow of it’s former former former self.

ReplyDeleteprimary line = SMART 800PhP/month [just took it down from 1200PhP]
2ndary line = SUN 350PhP/month [unlimited calls / sms to same network]

ah yes the OMAP 200Mhz... I used to have the Dopod 838 [HTC Wizard] and it ran the same processor as your JAMin way too underpowered...
