I once read that a true sign of greatness is facing the cold hard facts of life and admitting a mistake when one has been made. I truly hope this bit of speculation, that Sony Ericsson may be adopting Windows Mobile as a replacement for their Symbian UIQ, is more than just speculation. I am not a fan of Symbian UIQ having made use of both the Sony EricssonM600i and P900i. I hear that the new Sony Ericsson P1 is pretty good, but I image that I'd still prefer a smartphone of any other major type. I literally get my hands on everything and I dare say I prefer the iPhone, Nokia S60 3rd Edition, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Motorola Linux smartphone platforms (in that order) to Sony Ericsson's Symbian UIQ. I've found UIQ slow, cumbersome, and not widely supported. Good call Sony Ericsson, ditch UIQ, give Windows Mobile a try, and keep on making the feature phones you produce so well.
