Re: microsoft pink specs leaked

I may be reading into this incorrectly, but I see "Pink" not as any hardware or software but rather specification requirements for any handset manufacturer that wants "Pink" on their handset. The HTC Superstar is the only device we know of that will come anywhere near these specs; as for the image of the Superstar, I believe it will be either the Firestone or Whitestone on HTC's 2009 roadmap. Still, if WM7 is not scheduled for release until a year from now, MS's June-Zune announcement will only be cloud-like in nature, and we'll still be holding out a very long time for the substance.

However, this does answer my question: You will not be able to download WM7 onto any current device. I'm sure xda-devs will have something to say about that, but no official sites or carriers will offer it. It clearly needs a certain set of specs to make it work and legacy devices just won't cut it.
