Microsoft releases first WP7 update, not the one you expected

22 February, 2011
Microsoft announced the availability of the first update for its new Windows Phone 7 mobile OS. Unfortunately, it's not the one that adds copy-paste and we've all been waiting for. Instead, this update paves the way..

      NOSOFT sounds better than Microkia. I hope MS buys Nokia one day. That will make my day and will instantly make MS a mobile hardware company just like Apple. MS got the cash to do that.

        Any chance of an update for the HD2, or is that now getting abandoned by Windows?

              Looks like Nokia and MS are going down together. My Nokia days are over, waiting for the new Samsung 2. Is there an Android solution for PC?

                yes i believe the whole point is to lock you into needing Zune because they want your money its called business.

                I sometimes wonder if people understand that WM7 has only be out coming 4 months now. the whole point in multi-tasking is not drain you battery power something that Android is not very good at doing.

                And no i dont own a WM7 phone

                        I thought Microsoft would damage Nokia but it seems the PR1.1 method of software release for the Sympian^3 just infected Microsoft it's truly "Nokia + Microsoft" = "NOSOFT"...

                          Microsoft/Nokia is just as bad as Apple becauamse the user is totally locked to needing Zune for everything.
