Windows based Treo (Verdict: Who cares?)

We must be really desperate for gadget and Microsoft news to justify the amount of coverage the new Windows based Treo is getting.

As a gadget junkie and anti-Microsoft crusader you might expect me to show some level of interest, but I simply don't care. Windows Mobile is awful. It's flaky, has an annoying, quirky UI and doesn't do anything to improve the biggest problem with the Treo; the lousy phone quality. I wouldn't expect a Linux based Treo to be any better, but at least I would feel confident that the worms and viruses that plague Windows would remain outside of my phone.
