WP7 should "rip off" a lot of Kin features
The Kin is easily, in my opinion, the coolest feature phone ever made. Unfortunately, I'm very much a smartphone guy and the Kin just doesn't let you install your own software and customize it the way I need to.
That said, the Kin Studio is a very nice use of the cloud to back-up your phone data in a way that makes that data really usable. I'd love to see something very similar for WP7, only I'd want to see it tied to SkyDrive and Windows Live. It's certainly possible technically, and I think it would be yet another way to differentiate the WP7 devices and show how revoluntionary they are compared to iPhone or Android.
I'd also like to see the Kin Spot be available on WP7, too. It's just another new, more advanced (IMHO), phone-centric UI element that would set the Microsoft phones apart from the others.
And while we're swiping all of the best bits of the Kin, how about a Kin One-style phone running WP7? I love the little hockey-puck hardware format with the vertical slide-out keyboard.
