I notice the screen on the reference device is very responsive to his finger. It looks like it's using a similar screen technology to that of the IPhone as apposed to that of common Windows Mobile devices which after using both, I can say, that alone will make this better than Windows Mobile devices and better then Apple's as the OS will be more open to development. Looks like the potential to be the winner of Phone OS market

The phone is just a piece of reference hardware. Listen to the video people, we're just talking about the software here, not the hardware. That particular piece of hardware will likely never be released to consumers. It's solely and purely for developers to have something to test the software on.

OS looks promising, pity about the hardware though. Hopefully the final versions would see some improvements on that front. And the damned thing just froze up there. You could see him desperately trying to exit. His face looked almost petrified when the camera was back on him. Talk about murphy's law.
