Windows Phone 7 review - ouch!

[pdq]

Apologies if this has been posted on (I didn't find it in a search for "Windows Phone 7" ) but anyone with a hankering for a hefty helping of Windows schadenfreude ought to check out Infoworld's latest review of the forthcoming iPhone-killer from Redmond:

"Windows Phone 7 is a waste of time and money. It's a platform that no carrier, device maker, developer, or user should bother with. Microsoft should kill it before it ships and admit that it's out of the mobile game for good. It is supposed to ship around Christmas 2010, but anyone who gets one will prefer a lump of coal. I really mean that."

(...and that's just the second paragraph!)

Yow! I think it's the most scathing review I've seen of any tech product. They have got to get rid of Lord Ballmer before the MS battlestar completely implodes...

It looks pretty cool to me.

That was a vicious evisceration.

If the iPhone is the platinum standard, Android is the gold standard, WebOS is the bronze standard, and Symbian and BlackBerry tie for tin. Windows Phone 7 is clay -- a clay pigeon, in fact.
