I totally agree with MadSci on his post.

But first, on the original topic question about what Microsoft will do, I won't speculate -- instead I'll wait and see what they actually do. I am not expecting much.

In terms of the MadSci post, I am in agreement with his "four rules", however, I would caution an implementation of Rule 3 in which you return the phone if it doesn't have everything you thought was going to be on it. What is tricky is that it is very difficult to determine what new phones are supposed to have. Per Rule 4, the salespeople won't know and you really can't go by hearsay. That's why possibly the best approach is to wait for the phone reviews on your favorite websites (note the plural) where phones for a specific network are reviewed.

Barring that, you are setting yourself up for disappointment if you rely on anything else. I'm not sure it's fair to return something on the basis of what you thought you were "promised".

My bottom line: I will patiently wait for Verizon to come up with Windows 7 Phones and then I'll wait for the reviews to separate fact from fiction. By the time Verizon releases phones, the update model should have been exercised once.
