MS, Google and Apple all make such damn good phone platforms...

I really hope MS pulls this off. If they enable WP7 with all of the Kin features, I'll be in heaven.

I love the idea of being able to take a call on my computer, etc.

I was waiting to see this. With a usable version of office on the phone this will cut into RIMs market share now too and not just people who are trading their iPhones in (me). iPhone has been fun, but it doesn't have quite a few things that make it a great device for me. I feel like its just a pointer to my laptop. See something on iPhone now to go laptop to do something about it. WP7 seems to have what it takes to leave the laptop in the bag. That is a big win for me.

The email experience looks so much better than iPhone. Business folks will be flocking to this. ]]>Apr 23rd 2010 6:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/Apr 23rd 2010 6:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/Apr 23rd 2010 6:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/Apr 23rd 2010 6:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/I so can't wait for this on w tablet..... full fledged windows is just not the answer... but the new winmo is our Savior... along with android ]]>Apr 23rd 2010 6:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/Apr 23rd 2010 6:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/

Pretty freakin' sweeeet!!!

If the integration amongst WP7, SharePoint, Exchange, Live, Bing, MS Office, etc. is seamless, I can see all of MS' services getting a boost from WP7 launch.

Win? Are you serious?

It looks like it's unfinished. You ever set your screen resolution higher than the monitor supports and see how your desktop scrolls when you move your mouse to its edges? It looks like that as well. It's like an experimental UI designed by a first-year art student.

The only thing impressive about it are a couple of the transitions.

I find it hard to believe that they'll have astounding success with it. They'll probably find most of their support among some of the loyalists in the business community, but I don't see them coming close to Android and iPhone OS. And I think "when pigs fly" is literally appropriate for the idea of them possibly surpassing Google or Apple in the smart phone market.]]>Apr 24th 2010 3:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/

I totally agree! By year end there will be some cool phones available, but so far I am edging for a HTC WinMo7 phone, and I think (being a iPhone 3gs owner), that 4th gen iPhone looks cool but the OS 4.0 is now dated already!!!]]>Apr 24th 2010 4:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/
a.) Gaming - Don't know if you saw it but there is NOTHING out there that comes remotely close - the 3D RPG they showed makes anything I have seen on a mobile phone look like a toy... destructible environments and smooth 3D animation...

b.) Yes - there will be a huge following with business folks. I for one use Outlook like a madman and so do most in the 25-55 range which is the area this device is sharply aimed at - integration with the standard (Word,Excel,Oulook/Exchange) is brilliant. It's seamless integration across a fantastic platform - plugging the capabilities of the web directly into the interface and App/plugins that roll smoothly through the experience versus stand along APP Store style content (which will surely be there.)

c.) Didn't think I'd ever say this... I know you may not quite agree with me here but interface wise - Android looks Googlishly Toyish... not serious - not designed or free flowing.... just modular platform built off Apple's system of Apps. I find the iPhone rather bland in comparison... it's built around a marketplace system where instead the WP7 platform provides a very compelling platform with API plugs to increase functionality - a very novel approach to the mobile paradim.

I do not doubt that this coupled with the sure to be success of KIN (again - not focused on Apps but more so the desires of social networking for 14-24) is going to really going to be very successful. At first it MAY not sell as many units but I think people will look at this device while you are playing with it and say, "what is that?? That's cool as hell..."]]>Apr 24th 2010 5:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/23/updated-windows-phone-7-videos-show-office-doing-awesome-things/so whats an ipad good for?

Good money says these are the "some things are missing at the launch" kinda like Windows 7 was to Vista... Realistically an Incredible or EVO contract will be over well before this is available and running stable.
