I'm a CPA and I use my phone for business. My most important apps are Email, Contacts, Calender, Word Processing, Excel, the Web and Time Management. The rest of my software is probably the same over all platforms and perhaps cameras are of different quality.
I don't care at all about the Xbox games. As I have said many times here one think that is a must for me is for my phone to have an HID Bluetooth profile for my Stowaway keyboard. I use it for long emails, reports and Excel spreadsheets. I wasn't able to use my Stowaway keyboard with my Blackberry Storm 2 and that was a pain.
It seems to me that it would be logical that a WP7.5 phone would interact better with Office than Documents To Go and whatever means of syncing but I don't know that for a fact since I never used one. It is my understanding that you can't just setup the phone as a hard drive and transfer programs and files into it from your Windows computer. You need Zune or Skydrive. I don't know what they are.
It would be very helpful if someone could enlighten those of us who never used a WP phone, why it would be easier to use than an IPhone or a Droid. Is Zune and Skydrive, whatever they are better than using Itunes or whatever the Droids use? Is there more functionality in the WP version of Excel than the one on Iphone and Android via Documents to go? Just how is the process better for small business people like me?
Thanks so much,
