Please log in for more thread options It would be totally unusable and a waste of Microsoft's development
resources. Perhaps someone in the open source community would do it for
fun, but I'd much rather see Microsoft make improvements elsewhere.
If you want to use RDC, edit Excel documents, etc. then buy a PocketPC
Phone. This platform is optimized as a PDA first and a phone second and is
much closer to a general purpose computing platform. The Smartphone
platform needs to be optimized as a phone first with some PDA capabilities.
In particular it needs to be optimized for one-handed operation, overall
simplicity, focus on contacts/calendar/email, long battery life, etc. And
explicitly not turned right back into a PocketPC Phone!
