Well, I mean it's a start. The one thing that I've noticed, is that I don't really use that feature to much, infact...how many people in truly use that feature so much to the point where they've got to bash something that hard. I mean my phone dose it, but I've used it like once or twice maybe. It's not that big a deal nor is it a "must have" yeah it's become the norm, but nothing more. I'm not going to bad mouth the WP7 platform mainly because I haven't used it yet, like so many other people who are thowing punches at it. It's dose show a lot of promise and the Zune OS that it shares it's roots with is great. It's got a long way to go to catch up to Android, and the others but, I think once they lift some of the insane "uniformity" restictions this is going to be something awesome.

    gizmo, 07 Dec 2010windows mobile 6.5 can do copy paste , but in WINDOWS PHON... moreOnce upon a time smartphones were for smart people who could spell "losers" correctly. And, a couple of my 5 year old feature phones by Motorola have copy/paste. Big deal.

          Copy and paste? COPY AND PASTE? Oh my goodness, I have never seen such an amazing, advanced feature in my life! I mean, computers could do it... but now phones too? WOW! It's almost 2011 and seeing a phone that can copy and paste...I'm gonna faint with amazement!

              lol my Windows mobile 6 phone can do this with ease. Seriously though, i can understand the need for microsoft wanting to start from scratch but why change features which your older OS could do?

                Oh you should all shut up, you have not used wp7 so you dont know what is it about, i have it for almost one month and it rocks, its about speed and ease of use and getting functionality done the best way, you fly in it, you dont go in and out, you fly, i'm super happy with my choice

                  Wp7 is a threat for nobody. Just mark my words! This os will always be behind android and ios. There is nothing interesting about it , other than it copied the iphone the sameway the xbox copied the playstation.

                  Recently im thinking that microsoft is worse than apple.

                    Keep an eye on WP7 guys. I see this OS as more of a direct threat to Android than iOS. If it doesn't flop then 2011 will be a great year for us, the consumers and we will have even more options.

                          Must be a slow news day for GSM Arena.

                          People should ease off on comments about Windows 7. It's a relatively new OS.
