Of course - but what's the point of putting out a product that doesn't have the features to begin with? I mean no outlook sync support, no voip support, and now this free-for-all problem with the marketplace? Like how dumb is THAT? WP7 has less features than WM6.5 - usually when someone upgrades they expect more not less. I think Microsoft is just clueless when it comes to mobile. Few months ago we had the Microsoft Kin with probably one of the most ignorant marketing campaigns I'd ever seen and now they put out a product that's inferior to what it's supposedly replacing. Don't get me wrong I WANT to see it succeed but I don't see how it can at this rate.


>Getting the product out the door to meet demand vs. putting in features that people say are needed. Long time trade off for any product.

>>Yep that's right - I forgot that WP7 is GSM only right now - but hey so was iPhone until just a few days ago - heck they were only on the ATT band of GSM too. I wouldn't be shocked to see WP7 overtake the Blackberry market.
>>I do like the performance of WP7 and I'd really like to see it make it...but they just dropped the ball on some of the most obvious things - like you can't even sync your contacts with Outlook? Like how dumb is that? I finally resorted to installing the outlook hotmail connector for outlook and syncing them that way - but I doubt too many people will be willing to jump though hoops like that. MS is bragging about the update that's coming out soon so hopefully it'll clean up some of these issues.
