Windows Phone 7 early review: A breath of fresh air from Windows
Say goodbye to the honeycomb of standard Windows icons that seemed so new on Windows Mobile 6.5 -- you won't be seeing MSN Messenger or Windows Media Player logos on Windows Phone 7. Instead, there's a home screen of square widgets, called 'tiles', with nary an icon in sight.

It doesn't matter how good it is. Reality is apple could sell a calculator for 2 grand if they stuck an "i" infront of it. The whole "i" product line has become the way to present yourself as being a forward thinker and wealthy all at once. Everyone knows an ipod, iphone, ipad or macbook is going to cost you signifigantly more then the competition. an iphone is running for about. Shopbot canada is showing the iphone selling from between 600 and 1100 dollars... Thats multiple hundreds more then the equivalent blackberry, samsung, nokia or HTC phone. macbooks start at about 1800 dollars at the local futureshop here and its hard to find a PC for more then 1500 on the shelf. The examples just go on and on. People are "i" crazy. My university is full of Apple products. Thats despite the fact that most of the stats classes and science classes we have require programs that only run on windows. Figure that out.
Its all branding and until Microsoft figures out what Apple did and start to create a real image for their products they simply wont outsell Apple. Very few people know what the difference is between the various hardware and software componenets in their favorite electronics so they buy the one their friends have which is the one on TV. And in this case its the Apple products.
