WP7 is the dumbest smartphone OS since iPhone 1.0. It is so lacking in features it's practically a feature phone OS... All it has is a nice UI and it somehow spawned millions of fanboys.

1. Its not even finished yet so how about passing judgement when all of the actual features are in place.

2. "..somehow spawned millions of fanboys. Congrats, you've fallen victim to Microsoft's marketing."

Hmm Some people might say that same about apple, but I digress]]>May 4th 2010 3:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/Well actually, I think you both have a point. WP7 isn't out yet so things can still change for the better, but right now, looking at the facts, WP7 looks like it will be a lot like iPhone OS 1. They took a lot of the stuff people hate about the iPhone, then removed a lot of the stuff people love about the iPhone, then launched a pretty succesful PR campaign with lots of pretty pictures, and now people are getting all hyped up about something that looks like its going to be 3 years behind the curve. I know *I* wasn't impressed by the iPhone *at all* until they hit iPhone OS 3 with the 3g, and when MS releases WP7 Apple will be at the 4th gen already. It's funny how much hate Apple gets over here, while people are all over WP7. If you put them side-by-side, iPhone OS wins on almost everything already, and WP7 isn't even out yet :-S]]>May 4th 2010 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/May 4th 2010 4:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/]]>May 4th 2010 2:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/May 4th 2010 2:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/May 4th 2010 2:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/04/iphone-os-4-0-beta-3-is-ready-for-your-scrutiny/Jailbreak using Spiritjb and then install backgrounder = multi-tasking!

Same here, hopefully OS 5 will finally be as good as Android in features, but better executed via the Apple way and has a revamped appstore like the Palm App Catalog and tether 4G like with WP7S.

Why?! When all that matters is pixel density, right!? Sarcasm...

Can't wait for the keynote: "and we have doubled the pixel density! (while making the screen smaller)" just like they made the iPhone 3g have "thinner" edges (but fatter body).
