          I really hope HTC surprises us next week Sept 1st. Honestly they're really starting to lack any design innovations. My first smartphone years ago was the Desire. Since then I've been waiting for years and years for something to come across that would really catch my eye. The Galaxy SII looks nice especially the specs, but really anything over 4 inches is way too big, and supposedly Samsung wants to go even bigger than 4.3".

          Hopefully HTC will release a really thin phone for once, while keeping its build quality. And let's raise the internal memory HTC, 1-4GB of internal memory is pathetic. If nothing catches my eye after IFA 2011, I'll be taking a plunge on current phones. Not going to wait anymore for CES, MWC, and then a year or a half after just for the bloody phones to come to Canada if at all. (for once we actually beat the US with the GSII).

            AnonD-10946, 24 Aug 2011ROFL so now you own an Atrix? What happened to your Droid X... moreWas stolen :( and I can resist get an Atrix preowned from a friend for $129 beers and some pizza :D

            I still prefeer CDMA but I change to GSM since they offer better equipments on GSM than CDMA, even the Samsung GS2 is only on GSM :( Also I'm changing from Unefon to Telcel (the major carrier here) since they now have the exclusivity of HTC/Sony/Motorola :D

            But you can deny that WP7 looks like 60's retro style hehehehe :D

I thought you complained that GSM phones received poor quality service over in Mexico and CDMA phones were better? So why the downgrade in both service and device?

              Nice try with the lie buddy. Also if you view Android US as boring and uninspiring what do you think of WP7 UI which is just simple colored tiles on a flat surface? That's even less boring rofl.

              I don't know where you hear Ice cream was suppose to receive a new UI, Android will always be Vanilla, meaning simple and easy to use interface, the only thing Ice cream promised was that manufacturers did not need physical buttons for menus such as home, back, search, etc meaning devices will be more compact in the future and have less bezel.

                                In my point of view, no Android means no go for any mobile phone manufacturers(excepted Apple for its iOS). Isn't our late history told the same thing?

                                I agreed, WP7 is all fast and smooth but it lacks the power to change thing, (most)developers and (most)users don't care about it, it's as good as death.

                                I doubt, one big company like Microsoft tried to push it too much, can it give a birth to another worthy OS? Now even more companies accompanied, could this be the key?

                                I personally think, the key might be a number of 3rd party applications. No matter how good the OS is, its true power comes from the (quality)3rd party applications. Nothing more or less.

                                  Just telling that it will only wp7 now. Just they need now is higher resolution and the front facers so go in. Even when htc and Redmond gets together they beats cuoertino and robots. So go on wp7 buddies.

                                    TruthSeekr, 23 Aug 2011Mango (and Win7 in general) is probably not a bad OS, but I... moreWP7 has state-of-the-art UI design. It's minimalistic and fashion-styled, with perfect compositions of carefully chosen fonts and sizes in relation to the screen format.

                                    It may look boring on static images, but many forget WP7 is actually based on dynamic animations, perhaps the most animated OS there is. Even more, animations are the best I've ever seen, smooth and superbly designed, and while using it, it thirlls the user and give almost surreal effect, especially on (S)AMOLED displays.

                                    The best UI is WP7 UI.

                                    (I hope I have enough credibility for this since I'm professional designer)

                                      windows phone. Uninteresting. HTC will see their sales go down no matter how much money MS will throw at them. Android is the future (and present) of mobile OS.
