I'm not saying the specs suck, hell it could have 3 snapdragons, and 1 of the new dual core 1.5 processors, plus room for 10 micro sd each capable of up to 32g's and I am not poking at the pro7 in general. It's MS that failed. I have been here a while, starting with an htc 6700, before the TP1 launched. I was watching, waiting for what MS was hoping to launch last year with all the screen shots. I was a total diehard WM fan, then MS fired the group making the first hoped release of wm7, 6.1 was great, cooked roms of 6.5 were even better, then the whole 6.5.x roms came, and on a small screen, total let down. Ran NRG for longest time. Best ever. (NRGZ28 come to android and cook something). But then ms went with a bunch of boxes, based off of zune, and wrapped the whole thing around xbox. They went on the notion that if peeps wanted a microsoft phone, they wanted microsoft everything, and we don't. Peeps want diversity and originality, something that makes them, them. But for microsoft to push everything they ever made into their new "lets change the world" device doesn't really give people the choice to be who they want, but more of what MS wants them to be.

MS epic failed me, and I'm sure I don't stand alone. I had really big hopes too.

Not bashing those that want the new MS OS7, just bashing MS for not giving everyone a chance for freedom.

I think MS's next direction would've been Android. I may get bashed for this but IMO android is nothing more than Windows 98 of this generation. It has the tried and true desktop feel to it. That's all fine. What If MS would've followed this? It would be way too similar and probably overlooked in the market as the MS doubters would come out of the wood work and say it's not as good as Android. MS needed something different and this is a fresh start I actually see working for them. It's sad we can't have the WM7 of yore but that's fine IMO.
