Now you're on Android, what platform did you come from?

[Eddiethking]

I am new to Android (phone is in the mail) and I was wondering what platforms other Android users came from. You can just put the last platform you were on, or the platform you were on the longest - whatever you consider to be more meaningful to you.

I am coming from Blackberry.

Feel free to post about what platform you came from, if you would like.

Coming from Blackberry

 

[kingtz]

I'm a new convert from Windows Mobile and abso-frigging-lutely loving android!

Believe it or not, I was still using my 5 year old BlackJack 1 (yes, one) until about 2 weeks ago. Now using a Captivate.

I came from Blackberry (user of only 7 months). The platform I had used the longest was the Danger OS, the OS used on Sidekicks. I was on that for 3 years.

I came from the Blackberry. There are a lot of good things about the BB and I do miss the BB platform. That being said, i love my Evo. For what i use it for, mostly internet and apps, there is no doubt this is the best thing I've ever had! I hope BB can catch up, but doubt they will.

Lost my virginity to a Blackberry Curve 8330. I waited with baited breath when the Storm came out, but was disheartened as I read the horrors of first adopters.
I wanted touch and a full browser, but I didn't see Blackberry polishing their browser at the time. D1 was my savior. There's no turning back and Apple will never be anything other than propriatary. Android is King.
