Does Microsoft Finally Have a Phone Worth Buying?

    This came up in the Dutch 'Volkskrant' (newspaper, literally "people's paper"). It purported to show some live video of the phone 'launch'. I did not get to see this video, instead I was told that my browser and platform were not supported so sorry this Silverlight video is not for you.

    Funny, that. This browser and platform have no problems showing video. I guess this phone is just not for me...

    Silly Microsoft. You can not even show a video without building walls around it and still you want me to believe you can build a phone to interact with the real world?

    Ha. Good one. Pull the other one, it's got bells on it...
