Re: WM 7 running on TP2
heres my opinion....
WP7 cant be reviewed AT ALL right now. nobody not even bill gates has used the final polished version. the only thing that anybody can really talk about right now is the ui, personally i dont like it. i prefer to have a home screen with a big clock and my appointments and then go into a menu to see something like that. right now im using the droid and i love android, its faster and more stable than wm6.5 IMO. when wp7 comes out i will try it but for now im sticking with android android remember no os is perfect and everyone is in titled to their own opinion. |

I'm going to try to keep this simple and to the point, but I think you need to learn a little bit more about what WP7 is. First, the WP7 interface is a gesture based interface, the blocks scroll up and down, you can have all your info at the top of the list and the app links, people or whatever at the end. You CAN move the tiles around, hide and show what ones you want. Don't want to see the Xbox hub, you can remove it. Xbox crap... Don't even own one... Again Xbox Live isn't "XBox" you won't need an xbox to use XBox Live, or the "XBox" tile on WP7. It is a SERVICE to distribute games, keep track of fellow players, show gaming profiles, and accumulated Gamer scores. It is NOT XBox or XBox sync system or anything you think it is. Gayspace and Facebook... Dude, you just sound like a tool. I'll admit I don't use any of these services, but wtf are you bitching about. It's additional feature targeted to the MILLIONS upon MILLION of people who do use them. Stop being full of yourself and think WP7 should be designed to meet just YOUR needs. Hiding Filesystem - The filesystem or "AppStorage" is based on IsolatedStorage (used everywhere) and is a "Hidden" section of the storage area which requires specific permissions and only allows access to it's own space. Go read the WP7 section I have a post there explaining what it does. Other than that, what do you need access to? OS files? Are you even going to create applications for WP7? Do you know how to code? If not then why are you going to need access to the filesystem, please share. Where I am REQUIRED to put my downloads and other stuff? Your REQUIRED to put your stuff on the phone. When you download something it'll be simply available to you. Who cares where the OS puts it, it'll be assigned to a Hub and you'll access it from there. Or wait, did you want your Word document to be part of the Zune Hub? Maybe your MP3 player will play the magical song!!! Having to pay royalties for every 3rd part dev? Lol, in otherwords Piracy. Yes, you have to follow laws and actually PAY for the software you use and agree to use under the softwares TOU. Can't make your own cabs? Please, tell me how YOU make cabs. How many cab files have YOU made. Besides, the replacement for cab's will be XAP files, which is essentially a zip file. You ever zip a folder? There you made a XAP so yea, you CAN make this. Multi-Tasking - I PROMISE anything you can do with having Notepad and a Browser open at the same time in WM6.5 you can do in WP7 lol... Notepad and a Browser, dude the only thing this effects is stuff that runs in the background like GPS services, streaming music (Pandora will be supported) and polling services. Even then we aren't sure what's happening. There's been studies that the multi-tasking is more like Android than iPhone, meaning Apps are only shut down when resources are needed. Copy & Paste - I'll agree with you here, but from what I've been hearing, the community uproar about it not having C&P made them decide to include it for the RTM release. We'll see. But if there isn't there is the Smart Linking, which hopefully developers can link into, it's still to early to know. No Backward Compatibility - THANK GOD FOR THIS, don't shun it. So many crappy apps that ran like shit that werent ever updated, looked like crap etc... This is a godsend, like an App Refresh, besides it will draw alot more developers to use newer technology and give us better apps. Anyways, keep bitching cause I enjoy reading posts from people who bitch when we just don't have enough info. All we have is a CTP build that anyone can tell is VERY incomplete. |

Re: WM 7 running on TP2
seriously, how did this thread even get to six pages? the question was if wm7 will work on the touch pro 2. it was answered with the next two replies. as it is now, no. this is not a thread for people to say how good or bad wm7 or android is, there are other threads for that. stick to the subject, which was answered many posts ago.. so PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD as it is seriously off the original topic.

Re: WM 7 running on TP2
tom_codon is part of the team that brought WP7 to the HD2. He has openly stated there are only 4 devices at the moment that can run WP7 and the Touch Pro2 isn't one of them. He basicly said it's impossible.
