Nokia Windows Phone Revealed

Posted by timothy on from the if-you-want-one-please-explain dept.

DMiax writes "Nokia's controversial CEO Stephen Elop just revealed the prototype of the next WP7 handset. The CEO asked the journalists present to turn off the cameras because the new phone was 'super confidential.' Did he really expect them to comply? After all he must know that this has the potential to hurt the sales of the recently released N9, the last non-Windows Nokia smartphone. He would never want to do that, right?"

    on that note we should probably give up on OSX and desktop linux.

    Nice astroturf effort, but you missed the bit where they said "it definitely doesn't have anything making it particularly appealing in comparison".

    Seriously, go to a store and try a WP7 device.

    You'll see straight away that it's a spectacularly pointless and boring device. Hell, look at the pic in TFA and tell me that is not the blandest, most banal looking OS ever shoehorned onto a tacky imitation of a Space Odyssey monolith.

    Try to keep a straight face.

    Microsoft is copying Apple again and getting into the retail market with their own products.

    Are you on drugs? Exactly how is Microsoft copying Apple here? Seriously. Stop doing drugs.

    It's yet more astroturf; this guy never misses an opportunity to shill obscenely for windows phone 7 and microsoft in general.
