With such a large capacitive touchscreen, Windows 7 devices would be awesome.. But I would NEVER go for an OS that doesn't support multitasking.

User interface of new Winblows Phone is so lame. Too simple, looks like Windows CE 1.0 ten years ago.

But M$ is like Apple - they know how to sell old shit in golden paper to fools.

In my book, if it can't multitask, it's not a smartphone.

The panels are like Spb Mobile Shell, but Spb Shell is way better than the panels.... The X10 UI is nice, but want to see more.... Before I buy Android phone........

So, about current news in hand. I go WOW reading something positive about multitasking on Windows Phone 7, and then I go WTf reading bold statement.

What are they thinking? WinMo is like one of the best OS for multitasking management and they took it away? I can't imagine working without multitasking. With hardware power they have, they can easily manage multitasking without slowing down the overall performance.

From these current updates, I feel like they are making a toy for students and not a useful device for people who works extra.
