RIM like blackberry? Again, it does what its supposed to. People I know use it because they need the communication it handles. Not because they love it. Like having a Nextel for the PTT.

And MS HAD to make a big deal about this. They needed to let people about choices. Too many people know about the iPhone. MS just needed to get the info out. If WM7 is still about 6-12months away, that's way too much time for Apple to release another phone and less people using a WM device.

Plus Microsoft themselves made a big deal about this release. Press releases, conference announcements, ODM partner reaffirmations. You would think they were releasing an overhaul.
