What do think? Did Microsoft just give us glimpse into the next version of Windows Mobile? I'm pretty exited over this if you can't already tell.

What do I think?

I think I will see what Android offers.

I don't see anything interesting in those pictures.

Ditto. And I hope it's a little more spiffed than what I've seen from the SDK emulator and the "leaked" pics of the supposed first phone.

What do you guys think now? Doesn't it look pretty similar to the photos?

[stylez]

Then... Why are you here?

Probably to find out things about the Dash? Maybe to soak in new tech, but hay i'll say the same doesn't look impresive and i'm def not here to listen to Manson :eek:

<annoying foxytunes crap snipped>
I'm here because I believe in helping people get the most from their dash through greater information availability...that and I actually *like* some of the guys on this board.

That having been said, I'm not a fan of Microsoft who, unless there is significant competition from one or more outside sources, will *not* innovate since they know they have consumers by the balls.

I'm all for checking out Android since it's open-source. As it's about the only thing that promises major, widespread, worldwide consumer competition for Microsoft, it will hopefully light a fire under their respective asses to actually improve their stagnant PDA-phone operating system. The supposed WM7 pics and videos might be a start, but they're already way behind.

I've used smartphones since WM2002, and it really hasn't changed fundamentally since then. To use the current political language, Microsoft can only keep putting fresh lipstick on a pig for so long.

That's a dumb question...

I am here because I own a Dash and I LOVE it.

I am here because YOU asked for our opinions.

I am here because this is a GREAT group of people with a lot of knowledge and skill.

However this discussion is about WM7, which the Dash WILL NOT HAVE.

Those Youtube videos don't even show 2 seconds worth of video of the phone, what exactly are we supposed to see?

Thanks for asking, but next time if you want peoples opinions, don't always expect them to agree with yours....

Beartard, you are absolutely right, I have had a PPC since day one, and its pretty much the same today as back then..

Wow, tough crowd. I appreciate the video surfacing again, and it shows some things which we did not appreciate then:

1) Sliding panels is coming to WM Professional.
2) The live mesh integration client is pretty cool.
3) WM7 is going to look cool too.

For the people looking for change over the years, I have been using WM since 2000, and I have seen plenty of change.
