Only reason why people still have respect for The Htc Tattoo is becuase no on in the U.S will buy it since the Touch Pro2 is out. Plus all the deviced they put out are all high end phones. Now LG is a different story.

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

I think people would buy the Tattoo in the US. The TP2 ain't cheap, so the Tattoo isn't a bad alternative for the cash strapped non power smartphone user. The TP2 is also quite large. HTC makes lots of phones in this lower end smartphone segment, we just don't talk about them. Unlike Apple, WinMo gives us so many choices of devices to fit what features and design characteristics we value the most. That includes the size of our wallets.

LG.... :) I was grabbing lunch and the cashier saw my phone and asked me, "is that a touchscreen phone?" (I have a Diamond). I say "yeah, I like it a lot." She says, "yeah I have the LG something (didn't bother to retain the model name in my memory)." I say, "ohhh, cooool" and walk away. I was tempted to say more, but didn't want to hold up the line for hours and hours.

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

I'm very encouraged by this news.

Project Pink always sounded like some candy-coated endeavor, and now we know that's exactly what it was. MS bought Danger and its team to design and work on these "tween" devices and the mystery is over and that's out of the way. There is a segment of the market that will buy these and MS is simply capitalizing on it. Can you imagine our simultaneous heartbreak had Project Pink turned out to be a new WM7 phone and these were the result? Whew! We dodged a bullet.

Having said that, WM7 will either be a game changer or game over for MS. There is no second chance for them. I use Vista and have no problems with it, but if WM7 gets labeled as a Mobile Vista then it's all over. People will go to Android, BB or other and will not wait 6-12 months for WM7.5.

Here are the ingredients to a sure success:

3.8-4" AMOLED, multitouch, capacitive, WVGA 800x480, 16.4m colors
Tegra II CPU/GPU (avail. 2H 2010)
1 GB RAM
8 GB ROM + micoSDHC
CDMA/GSM Worldphone (SIM card slot)
WiFi, WiMAX, Bluetooth 2.1+ EDR
GPS & FM Radio
8 MP Camera w/LED Flash, Auto-focus & Auto-Stabilization
3.5" mm Headphone Jack & Mini-USB Jack
Removable 1500 mAH Li-Ion Battery

I'll take it with WM7 if it includes Zune and XBOX. But if WM7 doesn't deliver us unto the Promised Land, give me the same specs with Android "Flan" or "Gelato".

Thank you for listening.

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

why couldnt they just take the zune add a speaker and make that a phone......stupid ms i wont buy that pre lookin pos

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

Easy as cake, just turn the Zune into a phone so we can leave Htc.

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

I rather get a Pre if Im goin to get a phone like this.

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

Why would the company that belongs to the richest man in the US enter the phone market with phones that look like cheap plastic toys? Those both look hideous. I expected much better from M$ :angry7:

Re: Microsoft "Pink" Phone.
 

agreed!
