ATT is said to be the "offical launch partner" for wp7 and getting upto 6 WP7 devices.. so thatll put their sales in direct competition with iPhone whether thats what they wanted or not ya know, thats all i meant by it

think about that.. MS NEEDS WP7 to be succesful for there mobile business, we all agree on that right?? so why would they miss the Holiday season for CDMA just to release it a month or two later-when everyones trying to recover from holiday spending.. Jan-Feb is the worst time for anything.. People hold on to their money the most between those months because they over spend during the holidays... it just wouldnt make sense from a marketing standpoint just to make people wait a month.
and even darrens links title says "first half of 2011".. so that means itll be more like April-ish, maybe March if not a Summer release..
and i agree with another post FCC could be the culprit too i suppose..
I just wouldve liked to see WP7 come to VZW and Sprint right away.. I may not want a WP7 phone, just mean im not interested seeing my carrier have them... so it sucks it got pushed back.. idont like iPhone either, but i know its a good move for Sprint if they can ever get one..
