I admit I'm no Windoze fanboi. But I just
hate
the WinMo7 UI. The big, bright, flat, extra-large panels and text just look kinda Playskool-unkool, like for the under 6 or over 80 set. Way ugly and just uses up screen space.
And...M$ says they will dictate the hardware it is allowed on. Sounds like Ballmer has been channeling Jobs to me.
And...all phones will require 3 front-panel buttons, one being for Bing search. The heck with that - I'll choose what I use for search. I really like the clean, buttonless front panel of the N900 anyway.
And...old WinMo apps are a NoGo. That's gotta make developers wonder if they really wanna start over, with so many other OS out now they can write for.
But...it's Windoze, so it has a guaranteed base of users who will buy anything M$ no matter how good or bad.
