Although this is not a direct parallel, seeing as how Microsoft was working on WP7 prior to announcement, it will be interesting to see which OS will be more stable upon release.

Depends on your definition of stable. Because of python desktop widgets bug (a WONTFIX), I get daily (manual) reboots or horrible performance. And it's not a one-item list.
Nonetheless, I am really curious as to what the phone feels like. Unfortunately no upgrade for me until they get their multitasking skewed views back straight.

Well, a phone with an IE7 as a default browser on it may be the stablest in the universe, but it is still IE7

No, its IE7 plus IE8's javascript engine minus everything of use except QuerySelectorAll... They even removed the native JSON object from it...
IE7 was never good, it doesn't even go anywhere near that word.

Why do we even compare M$ with Maemo/Meego (Linux)???
M$ - Games
Linux - everything else
Don`t get me wrong am aware that linux can handle heavy games way better, but its a fact that there are almost no games for linux.

Hmm.. I find IE8 more faster than firefox. In fact the page rendering on firefox is still far behind than IE8.
Regarding the MS/Linux war.. seriously by now I think one should realize that if you have hung around with linux for eternity then you are never going to like Windows and vice versa for Windows fanboys.
I haven't had problems using Windows at all.
To each it's own.

The sheer amount of testing that went into the release is pretty staggering.
I'll wait to hear the Silverlight, Flash and Opera/Fennec announcements before I make a movement towards the platform.
The whole snobbery about the browser is... well, have at it.
10,000 devices, over a half million hours of active self-hosting use, over three and a half million hours of stress test passes, and eight and a half million hours of fully automated test passes. We've had thousands of independent software vendors and early adopters testing our software and giving us great feedback.
