Chinese Phone Maker ZTE Turns Down WP7

An anonymous reader writes "Chinese smartphone maker ZTE, fifth largest in the world, has publicly criticized Microsoft for the lackluster market reaction to its Windows Phone 7 operating system and said that ZTE has no plans to develop a WP7-powered phone. That's bad news for Microsoft for its well-regarded but not well-received mobile OS."

    Well done, you've completely failed to address anything I said in my post. I've had 'brain-removal surgery' because I want someone endorsing a product to actually list what advantages it has? I think that pretty much confirms that you're a paid shill - no one who doesn't work in advertising would consider requiring actual evidence of a product's superiority (rather than just a hand-waving comment that it's better) to be a 'rather silly religious attitude'.

    Did I say that anyone who doesn't agree with my 'limited view of the world' is a paid shill? No, I said that you are a paid shill, and that your employer is not getting value for money because you are very bad at it. Of course, I could be wrong, you could just be incredibly inarticulate.

    First, what 'limited view of the world' do you think that I have? That the iPhone is better than WP7? Sorry to disappoint you: I've only used an iPhone for a few minutes, and have never used WP7, so I have no opinion of their relative merits. You, on the other hand, feel the need to jump in to every discussion related to Windows Phone 7 with a ringing (yet fact-free) endorsement of WP7. You also feel the need to attack anyone who suggests that you might be a paid shill.
