Its nice that Microsoft knows how to copy. It would be really cool if they could learn to innovate. But hey, at least they can copy.
ROFL, by the time this comes out, i wonder where apple's interface will be. The Iphone is almost two years ahead of Microsoft....WTF!!!!

MULTI TOUCH IS NOT POSSIBLE WITH THE CURRENT TOUCH SCREENS USED IN ALL WM DEVICES

read it slowly

read it again

And sure, if you want battery life measured in minutes, you could use the camera - makes for GREAT DEMOS.

Seriously, we don't have to have this much suspension of disbelief do we?

Need not worry; it will take M$ at least 2-3 years to develop and then press into service prematurely...

It says there is no need for accelerometers, which is why I GOT EXCITED AS HELL! Its all with the camera! Which means we will see the day when a thread is titled - WM7 TITAN KITCHEN

Yea yea, its copying. But if companies could build on an idea that another company has come up with, we would be no where with technology. Microsoft is using some of the iPhone interactive features and taking them a step further.
