Don’t take this as condescention. I’m cheering for Microsoft on this one. They want an excellent mobile device in their lineup. But in case you’re able to buy a Windows Phone 7 device on day one…why?
There are lots reasons to bypass a WP7 unit-it’s a first-generation product; it lacks some basic features like cut-and-paste (although that’s coming); other mobile operating systems are more advanced-but I believe I understand those differences pretty well.
What I’m inquisitive about is why those of you who are becoming able to plunk down some real money for a WP7 unit are desirous about. Help me relieve some of my own ignorance.
If it were me, I’d guess the combination of Xbox Live can be a big selling point. I’m a bit too much of a cross-platform gamer for that to be a tipping point, but for hard core XBL players, I will be able to see the connection. But I’m putting words to your mouth.
