      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.

        FireDragon, 16 Mar 2010Guess what, I said this to you before and I remind you agai... moreYou are completely insane if you think HTC's sense UI is stupid. It's probably the most attractive and easy to use interface out there. I've seen the xperia x10 UI it's nothing new

          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.

                too bad they don't have multitasking. the new os is promising but unfortunately microsoft used a strategy similar with apple's.

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

I like Sense UI over the panels any day... 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.
