I haven’t seen anyone with a WP7 phone yet.

I agree that MSFT was late, but even worse they came in late with a mediocre product, and one of the worst marketing campaigns I can recall.

“Windows Phone...the smartphone you won’t use that much (or drop in the urinal).”

If WP7 offers anything that IOS or Android phones don’t, Microsoft’s ad agency has done a great job of keeping it a secret.

To their credit, they are laying the groundwork for what could be quite revolutionary. One of the concepts that MSFT is working on is OnLive. Theoretically, imagine playing Halo against your neighbor, from your phone. He wouldn't know if you had your XBox360 fired up, or your Windows phone.

This is still in the early prototype stages, but this is where games are going to eventually wind up.
