Re: Windows Phone 7... Doomed?

Well really, nothing right now is out that is as smooth as the iphone experience. Even Android's UI is inconsistant at times, the pinch to zoom can be a little choppy.. but if you want an iphone-like experience on another carrier without the price tag of an iphone you really have just android. And as far as the 'well WP7 isnt as tweakable, mutlitasking, etc' i really dont think most consumers care about those things. Heck i dont really care about those things much anymore. Multitasking has NEVER been a feature i like on WM. Either it slows down the device, its useless when the two programs you want to switch between close each other when you open one, or it drains your battery.

Oh and dont forget, Android was a dud up until the droid marketing campaign. It was then that a real iphone competitor hit a major national carrier.

I just really hope they dont market it with the typical bright color generic happy music that seems to permeate windows marketing these days. They need something cool and unique.
