Re: Windows Phone 7... Doomed?
Yeah... Back in the day it was all about the snapdragon and the hummingbird didn't hit the rumor mill till MS had already announced it's hardware reqs. Then the partners went to work and put together what I think I would put together for a new 1.0 OS. I've said it many times... Why would they put top of the line technology in something they haven't even seen. Or something that may or may not "hit".
I'm riding the wave. As far as I'm concerned... WP7 is only 7 weeks old. Of course it's at the bottom... Oh wait... It's slowly creaping up to a comfortable place in the phone arena. MS knows what they're doing. Even with the KIN. LOL. But anyhoo... Give it some time... They are on the right track and they may have lost alot of you to Android and they may loose me in the future as I'm not exactly their target demographic. But I assure you that my 17 and my 20 year olds are foaming at the mouth to get their hands on one of these puppies. So regardless of chipsets and history and loyalty and anything else... Microsoft is M$ for a reason. They have the money and they're not affraid to use it. They'll be OK. And with me or without me WP7 will be too. Now let's just hope the technical partners get on the ball and put out something amazing / game changing.
