    The industry was terrible but there were lots of good phones out there. The Samsung BlackJack was a pretty awesome device, and HTC was making some pretty compelling devices for Windows Mobile. Then the BlackBerry, of course, was a great device in a lot of ways too; very functional given the limitations of a hardware keyboard.

      I had the BlackJack. Cool device but ultimately, Windows Mobile was horrible when you look at it compared to what iOS did in even the first version (for consumers, not enterprise).
