microsoft has made it impossible for me to continue to use windows
That's the phone I'd buy
I'd probably put a custom rom on it but i'd take over any other phone i've seen to date
Re: What, you guys aren't interested in HTC's best phone?
It looks nice enough but I'd be MUCH more inclined to buy it if HTC offered a Nexus like pure android option.
It should be a menu option.
i will never purchase another Samsung product
fool me once... shame on you

Hate It ... I can't take Windows Phone 7 Seriously.... Ever

Annoying

it's not ok to even touch your phone while you're driving but it's ok to have a pc on your dashboard?

first rule of business (that verizon understands and microsoft doesn't)...

verizon and sprint were gonna have the nexus one too.. remember what happened to that?
Re: This has to be one of the most moronic things a carrier has done.
"This has to be one of the most moronic things a carrier has done."
ditto
and equally as stupid for Microsoft since it just makes them hated for trying to force what people don't want on them...
if people wanted Microsoft they'd by WP7
but most android users don't and won't
..and they won't use Bing even if it's ugly
head pokes up on their phone
and by the way just use Launcher Pro and you
won't have to see it.. or anything else Verizon
sticks ...
Re: Doesn't make any sense
... and why would anybody pay $99 for this phone that's so inferior to a $199 Vibrant? (that you could get for $.01 recently on amazon btw)
You're gonna pay $79/month for either phone.. you're saving $4 or so a month over your 24 month contract..
if the phone was free.. if the plan was cheaper.. maybe

Nokia: 'we prioritize antenna performance over physical design if they are ever in conflict
Interesting how you interpret what Nokia actually said.. when it seems Apple took the opposite approach

Dead on Arrival
they didn't have to kill it
it was dead on arrival..er conception
Microsoft shareholders should be asking
how did it ever get as far as it did?
design is just plain wacky
dont know how it ever got past the napkin
seriously... but i'm sure some will love it
warning
tried to buy something at pocketgear. they charged my paypal before the transaction was completed. never got the software. they never answered a single one of a dozen emails over a month. they don't have a phone number. they never responded even to the paypal dispute process. i finally got a refund from paypal a month later..I WOULD NEVER EVER CONSIDER DOING BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY AGAIN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
Re: I think WP7 caught everyone off guard...
If you're not a Zune user.. if you're not an xbox user...if you prefer Google over Bing.... WHY WOULD YOU BUY THIS PHONE? I want a phone for THE INTERNET.....NOT to be brainwashed and herded like a sheep into using Microsoft's other products.
it's just so amazingly... ugly ... to me
i'm sure many will like it but there's no way i can't live with that. unless there's a way to replace the whole front end...and from what i understand they've killed that option... sorry msft ... adios.. byebye
Re: What an idiot
EXACTLY
Re: and don't use it?
I did read the article. It says they want you to do your browsing at wi-fi hotspots. Q. WHY THE HELL DO I NEED 3G to use my phone at a 3G hotspot? A. I DON't. They're on drugs and apparently you are too....
and don't use it?
Buy our 3g phones... buy our 3g data plan.. AND DONT USE IT? What kinda drugs they on?
