We're not sure we'd be able to find a piece of hardware that made us adore Windows Mobile 6.5 (http://www.engadget.com/tag/WindowsMobile65/) the same way we adore puppies or a hot cup of cocoa, but that doesn't mean that the usual suspects -- HTC, Samsung, LG, and the like -- aren't producing some magnificent hardware on which to run it. Today we've had a chance to give LG's new eXpo (http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/30/lgs-pico-projector-packing-winmo-expo-outed-for-atandt/) for AT&T a quick once-over, and on paper, this is a hell of a handset: 5 megapixel autofocus cam, a fingerprint sensor that doubles as a d-pad, Snapdragon power, a WVGA display, full QWERTY, and most notably, support for an optional microprojector add-on. Sadly, a ship date hasn't yet been assigned to the PJ, but does the basic package hold its own against the similarly-spec'd Tilt2 (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Tilt2/)? Let's check it out.
