This is a nice looking phone but WM is a major joke. I developed WM products and left that arena because of the crap MS made us put in the device and the hoops they made us jump through. I could easily see Android on this and it becoming a hugely successful phone.

WQVGA on a 3.5 inch screen? That looks all… terrible

As others have said, windows mobile is pretty much useless, at least imo. The only way I would think about getting this is if it were able to jump to WM6.5/WM7 when it hits.

Looks like the LG VU with a minor facelift

Does Android support WQVGA screens?

@Jazzyl: I agree. Android would be awesome on this phone.

Isn’t it amazing how different eyes can see completely different things? I think this phone looks amazing and very sleek. Nice specs, as well.

Not bad looking at all but too bad it doesn’t have T-Mo US 3G.

That phone looks hecka nice; especially the back. But wouldn’t the battery die on this thing uber fast if you had to use both the GPS and talk on the phone on one charge?? Sounds like people are really going to be needing those car chargers. ^_^

This is a very sexy phone but not when you put Windows Mobile on it and it doesnt look as though it can be upgraded to 6.5. This is about as sexy as a hot stripper with cow $h!t all over her. Why not Android? I would love to see more Android phones.

How is that sexy? It looks like every other generic touch phone out there!
