I seriously doubt we'll be seeing anything this coming january now that wm7 has been delayed until Q4 of next year. Even then, i think its supposed to be released in europe first meaning we wont have an official release until sometime in 2011. Remember it all depends on the carrier but since sprint has admitted that they want it asap i am hopeful. I've read everyone's comments and i remained neutral on whether or not microsofts new os would be a flop, but after the delay i cant say i have anymore faith. Is it me or does it seem like after every new os is released, gets a major update or is shown/announced(android 2.0,webos,iphone,maemo,blur,bada) that microsoft seems to delay or kinda' pull back info on wm7? Im thinking that every time they see something out there, they realize they have to copy/add it to their os because its(wm7) not doing anything revolutionary. I mean with every new os their will need to be updates to fix bugs and add features. If wm7 has been in development for at least three years, why does it seem like its going to be the last to be released. By that time most if not all other os' will be much further along in their progression and whatever if anything microsoft does add that the others dont it wont take them long to catch up. By being last, it doesnt give microsoft this advantage, instead it makes it harder because they will have to always play catch up with the other os' features instead of improving upon their own os.
