Whatever.

So you mean that those things will be added to the Windows mobile 7 sooner?

Windows Mobile is dead. Windows 7 is called Windows Phone, because most has been rewritten. As a result, compaibility was broken.

Still a young OS (hence the rewrite reference), it has a few things missing or disabled, because MS chose to disable them rather than having them buggy.

Multitasking, for example, is disabled until it's smoothed out and has been announced to make a comeback soon.

Some have speculated that having WP7 will mean no copy paste, no multitasking, etc. While technically correct now, MS has announced the features and promised to release them in smaller updates, before yearly updates roll.

So, WP7 will be getting some of its features sooner rather than later. I assume that's what he means.

i have stumbled upon this picture of the zune HD running phone7-ish firmware. i noticed it is a custom one without the 3 required hardware buttons below the screen and no arrow icon on the right side.



now that the ms team is working with nokia's hardware team, "maybe" a custom port with basic functionalities maybe possible for arm architecture.

in the end of the day, it's just up to them actually.

Like seriously? A company the size of M$ still cannot dev an OS that is ready out of the box? They'd need to do it piecemeal? In any case, why would anyone want to use WP7 on the N900?

Actually I wouldn't be surprised if Nokia decided to test WP7 on their already existing test hardware, the N900, before they start to make new phones. On the other hand, a Qt GUI imitating the Metro interface would be easier to write than port that crappy OS to the N900. Also based on the WP7 system requirements the N900 doesn't have a fast enough CPU (600MHz vs 1GHz), enough memory (256MB vs 512MB), lacks hw buttons (qwerty does not count in this case), and as far as I know WP7 currently runs only on one specific hardware, thus the strict requirements.
