I hear that Windows Mobile is unstable. I never used that platform for more
than an hour, so I can't really testify. But the last time I reboot my Palm
was a long, long time ago. I can't even remember it.
In windows, reboots/crashed are like a feature. They tell you about it coming
in... whereas, with Linux, you may never come across that. If it happened,
you'd probably need to investigate. I guess it's like handling a death
during gory days of war, as opposed to having a serious incident occurring
in mundane life, which can get the police investigating for months, if not
years.
