I absolutely adore my Windows Phone 7, aka the worst marketed phone ever. How does Microsoft not realize that Windows isn’t really all that popular of a consumer brand - that the name is virtually synonymous with “necessary evil” in the minds of most of the people they are trying to reach?
At any rate, the large effort put into the UI design of the Windows phone really shows - it really is a great phone to use. I’m also somewhat biased by the fact that the developer tools are great and it is so much easier to develop apps for.
I very much like many of the Android phones, but the PC woes of today are the future of Android if Google doesn’t make some adjustments in their strategy. Already, the fragmentation of hardware and software setups is starting to show some rough edges.
yeah my sister and niece were what the hell is that? How did you get your avatar (xbox live) on there? They were “Windows makes a phone?” and they had just been shopping for new phones a couple of weeks back. They both had gotten new droids and did not even see any Windows Phone displayed anywhere.
Now my niece wants one, but has to wait. I told her it would be better as Mango would be out officially by then and probably better hardware and app support which is a bit weak. Although most apps I used before are not necessary with the hub integration (facebook, twitter, email, etc)
Yeah..they’re all CDMA in the states. I don’t know how common the world phone options is. I’m aware of at least two, off the top of my head.
For obscure historical reasons, I’m carrying a Verizon Blackberry, but using it with a T-Mobile SIM. Friends of mine are carrying a Verizon Motorola Android device of some sort - I forget the official name - on AT&T.
