I’m staying ringside on this one, but there’s a little three-rounder going on right now. Round one started when David Pogue reviewed the T-Mobile Shadow, finding it to be a less than favorable experience. I’ll definitely grant David some of his points on the Windows Mobile platform, but from what I’ve seen and read, the custom interface on the Shadow (called Neo) is a step in the right direction.Round two found Chris Leckness expressing his disappointment in David’s review and felt that he could debate 33 to 50% of David’s observations. Could some of the negative thoughts be coming from David’s lack of experience with Windows Mobile? Possibly, since a few of his stated issues have simple solutions if you know them.The bell for round 3 rang last night as Matt Miller penned a point-by-point series of jabs in defense of the Shadow. Actually, he didn’t pen them it turns out; on his way home from work, he tapped out a majority of the article right on the Shadow. That’s no sucker punch, that’s a statement.
