I saw this coming...I felt that WP7 was trying to be linked in with the windows 8 based on what I heard it seemed conceptually similar...
And again this goes into me saying before that as things are going M$ is gonna go out of business...
But if what the updated article says is true, they should have released kin 18month ago..if they did I could have seen it as a not to bad phone..but at this point the market has matured far too much for such a device to break into the market.
This goes same for WP7, from the info that is available..it brings very little to the table...
And they should have released courier instead of releasing kin now...
Lastly..goign sour with verizon is a bad move..AT&T will be hugging iPhone all the way..which leaves Sprint and T-Mobile...T-mobile is junk for launching a brand..if anything Verizon is what gave Android its name...This leaves Sprint as M$ only hope...but they may end up like another Palm Pre....
