That's cool, but I don't know. It seems like the phone manufacturers are dead set agains making a device which truly does it all. For all that one may get with Win7, one loses others:
Windows Phone 7 series – the bad news
No true multi-tasking, except for special hub apps like Pandora.
Marketplace is the only way to install apps, except for developers, beta versions and enterprise.
No removable storage.
No file system – apps can only access their own directory.
No USB drive mode.
No replacement of the default apps – while Opera will be allowed, it could not be the default browser.
No 3rd party shells
No native code
No peer to peer gaming.
I still have my WinMo 6.1 Moto Q on standby, as it has proven reliable for reception and functionality (go go slingbox!), but how hard would it be to leave at least the hardware features in, from the above list?
