Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

So I am not super impressed with wm7 as of now but will wait for more info to further judge it. I do hope that they will look at all the online feedback and tweek accordingly... like it needs flash on launch we know you have the resorces and money to pull it off. Still I love My tp2 and all the things that I can do with it that make my buddies with their crapple devices jealous.

Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

If the WM7 phones go to the stupid Zune style layout I will buy one just to throw it at that douche in the video. If a Zune got wasted and hooked-up with a iPhone, this phone would be the resulting bastard child that neither of them wants.

The phone, as shown right now, looks like it will be great for non-business users.

They need to keep their phones BUSINESS ORIENTED, with all that multimedia crap on the side, optional for users to use. Or have a WM7 Business edition that is setup to be more business oriented and make their current crap a Multimedia edition. I'd like to see that.

Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

I like the general looks that I've seen of it thus far, but I don't know if it will be my next phone OS or not. I still have another 15-ish months before i get to upgrade at a discount and a lot could happen between now and then.

Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

Reports indicate that Windows Phone 7 will not have multitasking. That puts it in the category of a [I]toy [/I]operating system.

A "clean" interface is simply one designed for children, siimpletons, and low-res screens.

Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

Maybe I misread something, but I was under the impression that this VERSION of Mobile7 was the "media" edition or something like that.

I can't find the original artical I read on Engadget Mobile, but they stated that there would be a business version coming as well.

Microsoft has stated serveral times that there would be MORE THEN ONE version of the OS/UI. Standard and then another.

Stop getting your panties in a bunch ladies!

Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

From what I've seen so far, I'm fairly certain I'll be switching to Android.

Re: What do you think of Windows Phone 7?

Because having instant access to your xbox 360 avatar is really business orientated, just like lack of multitasking. if this is wm7, android here I come, no matter what you want to call the door.

You're dreaming, if there was going to be another edition they would've announced it. Those reports about 2 seperate os' were false. There is no media edition only 1 windows phone 7
