Windows Phone 7 is almost upon us, months of development, testing, marketing are culminating in an October launch for which we have not had a definite date set.
The folks over at Pocket-lint have always been pretty good with their Windows Phone 7 information and have again come up with an interesting bit of news. According to their sources, Windows Phone 7 is set for an October 11th launch with the associated handsets coming later that month.
Microsoft, as usual, would neither confirm or deny these rumours.
As the Android operating system continues to thrive and Apple keeps releasing updates to its iOS software, Microsoft’s new OS can’t come soon enough for the company.
Expect Dell, HTC, LG, Asus and Samsung to have their handsets ready by October, we will of course cover them all.
Three days before my birthday!
I’m not sure if I’m ready to get my feet wet with WP7 right out of the gate given that it has no copy/paste and we don’t know how frequently the platform will be updated, but it is a tempting proposition. Based on what I’ve seen with even the earliest games and from what I know about Zune, the entertainment experience on these phones will be fantastic.
Better Copy & Paste that date, huh?
