Today, October 11 2010, may be one of the most anticicpated days since the moon landing. I mean it probably tops the moon landing (because you know, it was staged). Anyways, the launch of Windows Phone 7 has finally officially debuted to the public. It’s been quite a journey, but the moment has come. Now let’s not get all gushy and jittery just because the new OS is making it’s way into the market. Another way of putting it is don’t get “hot” for it like the Apple Fanboys. Ignore Microsoft’s television commercials, if they dare to imitate Apple’s marketing strategy. Jeese… if your product is good then it should sell itself.
Tune into the program today. It starts at 9:30 a.m. EDT/6:30 a.m. PDT.
“We’re always working on future versions and have nothing new to announce”. This is what Microsoft has to say about Windows Mobile 7 in an e-mailed statement received at the CES event that happened in early January. The 2010 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas has put many Windows Mobile 7 enthusiasts in a grumpy mood. It’s still unclear whether Microsoft is calling it Windows Mobile 7 or the Windows Phone 7, but many manufacturers (NOT MICROSOFT) are saying that we won’t be seeing the new mobile operating system until
2011. Personally, I still believe the
release date is still in the 2010 scope. I think there will be a Windows Phone that runs WM7, just like Google has done by releasing their first and only phone that uses Android, the Nexus One. In other words, Microsoft will most likely follow Google’s step by having a phone manufactured and tailored towards Windows Mobile 7.
“We spoke with representatives from Microsoft, Lenovo, Qualcomm, TI, Nokia, nVidia, HTC and many more and they all had just one message — Windows Mobile 7 is delayed until 2011,” a story posted to BSN’s site said. “We’re now certain that we won’t be seeing Windows Mobile 7 before World Mobile Congress in Barcelona in February 2011.” [bsn]
“If they were going to slip it [past 2010], they would have let us know [but] I don’t know why they’d miss because they know that every minute they miss, they’re losing partners,” Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group. [in]
HTC Russia, I mean. They’re still Russian. While most people probably can’t read the language, they’re leaking sensitive information about the new Windows phone. Also, the HTC HD2 will be getting the very first Windows Mobile 7 upgrade download.
Since Windows Mobile 7 will have new hardware expectations, only a select few of WM6 phones will actually be able to upgrade to WM7. I believe Microsoft and HTC are working closely together, in order to plan the release date of the new Windows Mobile operating system.
The fellows over at PCworld decided to waste their time speculating their 2010 predictions. Come on guys, you might be smart but don’t be so arrogant to think that you can predict the future. Look at how many people actually recommended the story 
The reason for the grill is because they claimed that Windows Mobile 7 will be pushed back to Q1 of 2011. This is complete nonsense! The release date of Windows Mobile 7 is still Q4 of 2010. Most likely October in order to gain market share and build hype for the Holiday season.
Quit your speculating, PcWorld!
