Admittedly, just about _all_ the mobile phone smartphone OSes behave like they're in beta.
* Google - Everything is beta, everything. Gmail is still in beta. Docs and Spreadsheets is still in beta. Can android really be taken seriously as anything but a beta? * Apple - Even engadget agreed that the iPhone 3G launch has been completely un-apple. Mobile me: beta. Firmware 2: beta. 3G handset reliability: beta. Application store: beta. * WinMo - 6.1 is great, but even with very polished and streamlined kitchens, my HTC Mogul still crashes with nothing installed but skyfire, SPB backup, and two IMAP boxes. Threaded SMS is much better and speed is faster, but locking up in my pocket is no more acceptable than the iPhone dropping calls.
