Microsoft is not fossilized in their own mythology. They are finally looking competitive in the apps and services part of smartphoning and Windows Phone 7 is their ticket out of the mold.
The Windows Mobile Today screen is gone and gone is the Start menu. We told you, Windows Phone 7 is unrecognizable as a descendant of Windows Mobile. But do not worry theres actually only a couple of things you need to learn before you feel right at home with the new UI.
The interface has a cool cover-of-a-magazine feel to it. At first glance, the similarity is obvious font size ranges from large titles to small labels to direct your attention as needed. Some of the hubs even have a dynamic visual background that makes them look like a page in a magazine.
Bing search is integrated into Windows Phone 7, just like Google Search is part of Android. It offers suggestions as you type too, but it has one nifty little feature the background picture.
Like the Bing website, there are new photos every day to serve as background, but on WP7 these have an extra feature three squares on the photo, which give you three interesting facts about whats on the picture. The copyright sign in the bottom right also reveals the location of the photo.
After series of live photos and a thorough demo video, LG E900 Optimus 7 Final Version now leaks in some official press shots. Thats Mean No More Proto-types and Expectations... Samsung own WP7 smartphone, the Samsung I8700 Omnia 7, poses for a video shoot.
We previously saw Optimus 7 showcased Many times by LG itself and the first leaked live pictures and video. Now its time for the official press photos. There is No More Details but the official announcement will be later this month for the complete details.
Windows Phone 7 is just around the cornerand as we get closer and closer to launch day the final pieces of the store are being put into place. One of the most important pieces, perhaps even the most important piece, is the app store. No modern smartphone OS can get by without an app store and Microsoft has been finalising its Windows Marketplace for the launch.
Microsoft have taken a very pro-active stance when it comes to launching with a good selection of apps, even going so far as to pay developers to code apps for its new platform. Starting from today Microsoft will be sending forth invitations to registered devs asking them if they want to participate in an early submission process. Its estimated that a few thousand devs will be able to gain early access and get their apps published in time for the launch of the handsets, which most now believe will take place in either late October or perhaps early November depending upon region.
Microsoft Press Release:
"There are several app store models out there today, but we’ve been given a unique opportunity to start from scratch and launch a Marketplace with one great year of experience under our belt. As I said earlier, our approach is philosophically the same. But now we know how to do it better. We’re focused on enabling a broad developer community to create quality apps and games that take advantage of the unique features of our phone, and we’re providing better tools and guidance to do it. We continue to keep our certification standards high and our policies transparent, while keeping the door closed to more questionable content. We also continue to improve the speed and predictability of our certification process so developers can more accurately plan."
Microsoft have confirmed that Windows Phone 7 will be launched on 11th October in a series of worlwide events. The main party seems to be taking place in New York where Microsoft CEO, Steve Ballmer, will be joined by ATT head honcho, Ralph de la Vega to give a presentation.
ATT will be in attendance as they are Microsoft preferred launch partner in the USA. T-Mobile would also be making an appearance at the New York Event. That is true in so far as T-Mobile will be making an appearance at an event that is for Microsoft customers only. Both ATT and T-Mobile will have Win Phone 7 handsets ready for launch, with AT&T reported to have 3 separate handsets ready to fly off the shelves.
On the subject of handsets its worth noting that even though the platform is launching on 11th October the handsets will probably not. Rather they are expected to go on sale over a week later in Europe on 21st October and even later still in America on 8th November.

Some people have gotten a chance to have a play with Windows Phone 7 ahead of its official launch later this month and they have recorded the experience on video for you to gawk at. Note though that the handset they are using in the video is not a final production unit, so cut it a little slack.
They go through things like the Xbox Live view, the contacts list, bing voice search, the Zune player and more besides.

Of course one has to remember that Toshiba is not a named launch partner for Windows Phone 7 so this could all just be pie in the sky. Having said that Toshiba could still release a Win Phone 7 handset soon after the platform becomes official as Acer is planning to do. In fact being slightly behind the curve here might actually be a good move as it would give them time to fine tune their handset once the initial reaction to Win Phone 7 has been assessed.
Well it was only yesterday that we were posting up that leaked image of the HD3/7 and commenting on how even though there was a nice picture of it there was no specs list. Fear not gentle reader for the specs list has now also leaked out! Most of the specs you could probably have geussed to be fair, but it's still nice to see them in black and white.
The noticeable thing here is that the HD7 is similar to the HD2, both running with 1 GHz processors, 4.3-inch touchscreens and 576 MB of RAM. Both handsets also sport 5 MP cameras. So far the expected launch date is sometime in October, presumably after the 11th when Windows Phone 7 itself officially launches.
