The name could use some improving though lol]]>Feb 26th 2010 7:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 26th 2010 7:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 26th 2010 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
XPhone Box]]>Feb 26th 2010 8:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 26th 2010 8:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/I think the name is ok as long as they describe it to customers a little different. Your not going to go to the store and say I want "a Windows Phone 7 Series, phone". It should be more like I'll take a windows phone or windows 7 phone. Also I don't get why they just don't add the zune and xbox logo. I really think that a teenager will take a look at a phone that has the xbox logo because they most likely want to play games. If not then they better do great marketing. The phone and idea is great and I am first in line to get one but a regular person has not heard of this phone. Also I hate it when I go into a store and say I want a Windows Mobile phone and I get a weird look from the rep. Do they get pay more to sell other phones? No then let me buy what I want to buy.]]>Feb 26th 2010 9:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/The iPhone was amazing in 2007, but the iPhone look dull, boring, and plain outdated in 2010. Windows Phone 7 can defeat the outdated iPhone that Apple has barely updated in 3 years if Microsoft plan well enough. Perhaps this is the year that Microsoft became associated with magic the way Apple always claim to be associated with. If Microsoft can win over hearts of Apple users, the future is Microsoft.]]>Feb 26th 2010 11:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
And I'm really not sure if I could say that this will fully replace the iPhone for me. Since I love iTunes and the iPod feature that it has, I can't really say that I would be making a switch just yet, maybe after a little while, with updates, and new phones, I'd consider it.]]>Feb 26th 2010 11:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Very great point there, branding W7PS with the XBOX and Zune support. MSFT has a solid base there and has great potential of swaying customers if marketed correctly.Hell I'm willing to give up legacy app support for solid integration with XBL (c'mon Marvel VS Capcom 2 on W7PS) and Zune. As we have seen, marketing is very important. I don't want to see a repeat of Palm and WebOS where good hardware and great OS get flushed down the toilet because it wasn't marketed correctly. ]]>Feb 27th 2010 5:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/to start. I think MS has done a pretty good job to show 'simplicity' over this platform. Let's see how this one rolls out to the public!

are xbox live games designed for touch controls? I am not sure how xbox games will translate to windows phone!

If it's just movies, couldn't it be just be a part of zune?

As for Netflix streaming. The picture gets choppy during panning scenes on a dual core 2.1 ghz processor with 4gb RAM on a 20mbps download network. Wonder what magic they'll have to do to get it to work in a mobile device with good quality. ]]>Feb 27th 2010 7:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
What exactly did you miss? One thing Microsoft wasn't shy about this time around was information on their new platform. Almost to an annoying level of information...]]>Feb 27th 2010 9:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 27th 2010 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 27th 2010 4:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
If Microsoft plan was to take away iPhone users, they've already failed. I doubt that is there intent. Of course they'd like people to switch but I think they're more so going for those who haven't yet adopted smartphones and current WinMo users obviously. The mobile market is no where near saturation for most people still use regular phones. ]]>Feb 27th 2010 8:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 26th 2010 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/

See what you did there.. you just... yea... overrated Android. Get it?

The techies are the ones overrating it. Real people use the iPhone. No one uses Windows Mobile.

No I"m pretty sure he meant exactly what he typed. Android is vastly overrated and it hasn't lead to any revolution or even an evolution of the smartphone industry. If we're talking about game changers here then Apple is the only company in recent history who has done that when it comes to phones.

Before them was RIM and before them was Palm.

So really stop drinking that google coolaid. The masses couldn't care less about Android and going by the recent Engadget article it's still way behind the iPhone, Nokia, Windows Mobile, AND RIM/Blackberry.

So android fanboys can cry all they want but it's going nowhere.

Meanwhile Steve Jobs is laughing all the way to the bank.]]>Feb 26th 2010 11:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
While iPhone OS is WAY overrated, and would be a better example, the biggest problem that i have with android is that the App Market is so fragmented, that its almost impossible to find good game for most phones.]]>Feb 26th 2010 11:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
Sorry, check the stats. Android is way behind the competition (5th in fact) in terms of market share and importance.

On topic: I agree that WinPhone7 looks impressive; very impressive. However, I want more questions answered. There are to many variables to be addressed. How does multitasking work? Notifications? Give us some detailed insight of the 'Chassis' that will make up the hardware.

Come on Microsoft, you've got us interested. Keep us there.]]>Feb 26th 2010 8:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 26th 2010 8:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
I doubt Engadget hates android but I wouldn't blame them if they did. You android fanboys are so annoying its unbelieveable. You guys constantly moan and groan about Apple stories and Apple this and Apple that.

You whine and complain about Apple's popularity yet you wish you had the same level of attention for your inferior devices.

Android is vastly overrated. It can't even provide a web experience on par with the iPhone. Nor does it have the same amount of apps. Nor does it have the iTunes store which allows me to buy movies, music, and other things that I want in one central location.

Android is simply for tech geeks. Most regular people are fine with iPhone and even the other OS. The only people who complain about Apple and iPhone are the Apple haters like yourself.

And oh if you HATE ENGADGET SO MUCH go to Gizmodo or some other tech website. No one is forcing you to read this website. And the writers have a RIGHT TO LIKE/DISLIKE any device or OS they want to. You don't have any room to judge them.]]>Feb 26th 2010 11:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/

Well, if it's as impressive as the 3GS and the iPad, you're in for a treat.

3GS - (Compass + 3G ability + faster CPU) = original iPhone...wow...so impressive...not really...]]>Feb 27th 2010 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
"Summer = iPhone 4."

Unless it's 4g capable probably more like the iPhone 3GSM (with Steve telling us "the M is for magic"). Same phone, same screen, now with an available 120gb model and some small feature that should have been in a software update.

Go ahead and accuse me of being an apple hating Android fanboy.

Its been missing key functionality since day 1 (such as multitasking), its totally locked into a closed ecosystem (I cant get over how many people are happy with apple telling them how and what they can and cant have on their phone!) there is a complete lack of hardware versatility (one size does NOT fit all!)]]>Feb 27th 2010 12:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 27th 2010 4:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/Feb 27th 2010 7:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/26/entelligence-windows-phone-7-series/
While the iPhone may have more apps, it still remains true that android apps can be more deeply integrated into the os, leading to farther reaching function and more possibilities for developers. ]]>Feb 27th 2010 11:35PM
