Just how bad is Windows' latest effort to capture the cellphone market? According to InfoWorld:

"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."

You're getting kind of predictable there Geoff. Maybe some people will take a look at the phone for themselves (when it is released) and make up there own minds based on more than a sound bite.

Why is Microsoft taking so long? Don't know, don't care. But I'm looking forward to see what the final polished phone can do.
