Trying to compete with iPhone and Android. I hope this version of Windows phone brings something new.

I'd love to get my hands on one of those. I can only hope they've learned from their competitors and made something that will really get users contemplating a switch to Phone 7.

I'm hoping for the best for MS on this, as I'm looking to possibly be a developer for it. However, I do like the Droid X...

I will upgrade to Win Phone 7 when Microsoft gets a clue and allows new HTC touch pro2 phones(two months old) to be upgraded. Currently HTC touch pro2 phones come loaded with Win mobile 6.5 and they can't even upgrade to 6.5.3 .
Microsoft has issued a statement that these Windows phones will NOT be upgradable to WinPhone7. If this attitude towards the loyal Windows customer does not change I will definitely be considering either an Android phone or an Iphone.
Furthermore I have my doubts as to whether Microsoft will step up to the plate and support this OS if they find it doesn't gain market share quickly enough. Microsoft has had a bad tendency to walk away from their offerings far to quickly leaving the consumer holding the bag.
Only time will tell whether I upgrade or load Android on my phone.

Nokia has OVI store, apple has app store and android has their own online market. But MS is still way behind.
