Windows Mobile beats Windows Vista

Yesterday I had a transfer time at Istanbul Airport of more than 5 hours. As I got bored in a coffee bar after a while, I got out my mobile phone. The HTC Touch running Windows Mobile 6 was not fully recharged, because I played already Sudokus. I switched on Wifi, selected the available free_internet network and started reading news. I downloaded Google Maps mobile and I love it. I downloaded Skype mobile and Agile Instant Messenger. Unfortunately the last one needs a PC for installation. So I started my Asus V2Je notebook running Windows Vista Business. But I could not install the instant messenger, because Vista is not supported. But I continued surfing with mobile phone and notebook in parallel. The notebook was completely recharged and running in battery saving mode, but the result was disappointing. With Vista it was more intricate to setup the Wifi connection and get started, it seems to be slower during surfing the web and its battery was empty long before my flight started. The mobile phone required no recharge until today. Maybe the test was not fair, but for my subjective view the Windows Mobile devices beated the Windows Vista device.
