Can you show me a smart phone anywhere that crashes less often?

I don't even know of many desktops that don't tie themselves into knots about every month or so. Even Sparc stations need a reboot once in a while. Every other cell phone I've ever owned or been near, when used for data or PIM applications (except Blackberry), has crashed 10 times that often.

As for 3rd party apps, if they crash the machine it's not the fault of the machine (usually). And most phones require 3rd party apps just to do mail or browse the internet. And even with outside help, nobody but BB gets mail right.
