Yes, i realize that, but what I'm saying is simple, it took me a month to get Vista SP1 on Microsoft update. If Vista is Microsoft's main OS, shouldn't that have been top priority over XP SP3 making it to the Update servers? Just saying...
Vista is not Microsoft's 'main' OS. Newer, but not 'main' OS in terms of current usage, and popularity.
If anyone has been following the standard MS SP release schedule they would notice that SP3 is actually more then a year late, which if followed would have released SP3 right in the gravy train of Vista sales.
I don't personally think it wouldn't have mattered because people are either going to run Vista or they're not. If they pulled off XP SP3 development to focus on Vista SP1 development because they were afraid XP sales would surge due to SP3 and slump Vista sales temporarily Redmond must not have a very high level of confidence in Vista.
Anyway, SP3 isn't a new idea. I personally have been waiting twiddling my thumbs for about 2 years waiting for it.
All I've got to say that it's about time, and because it's egregiously late it bares the Microsoft symbol of so-so quality! Party at my house! We're all going to have watered down beer, and broken nacho chips to commemorate an occasion such as this.
Following the commercial success (and technical disappointment) of the original Wildfire -- which featured a miserly 528MHz CPU and QVGA display -- HTC has returned with the Wildfire S.

I JUST got my vista service pack 1 downloaded and that was how long ago? I'm not expecting this out for a while...
This is for XP SP3, not Vista SP3.
