Windows Phone 7 | Ignore the Code
A UX time-capsule of Windows Phone 7 on a Samsung Omnia in mid-2011. I wouldn't mind seeing a bunch of these WP7 features make it into iOS 5.

Joe Belfiore shows off Windows Phone Mango (Video)
Impressive web rendering demo (2:00). Bing Vision (4:15) looks hot. Live tiles are a great idea (6:10). Social activity integration and threads (8:45) look interesting, but not something I need. Ten minute video.

Microsoft's Competition for Windows 7
"But so here’s a thought: What if the reason why most PCs are still running XP has nothing to do with whether Vista is “good” or “bad”, but rather is the result of indifference on the part of whoever owns these untold millions of XP machines, be they at home or in a corporate IT environment. I.e., that switching to Vista, regardless of Vista’s merits, seemed like too much work and too much new stuff to learn; that the nature of the PC as a universal commodity is such that most of them belong to people who value “old and familiar” more than “new and improved but therefore different”. If that’s the case, Windows 7 may not do any better than Vista. Perhaps Windows 7’s competition isn’t so much XP as it is apathy."
