But they said that Win 7 phones will have a Zune type interface. So maybe I was right because I got it all wrong. That is to say, in February Microsoft did announce something called Windows Phones that would have a Zune like interface. So that’s kind of a “Zune Phone coming out in February.” LOL. But I should have said that in February Ms will announce Zune type phones coming out in November.

Let’s see what else I can get mixed up. Hey, I know. Supposedly MS was supposed to debut WinMo 6.6 in February. They did not. Maybe what I meant was that MS would announce that WinMo 6.x.x OS will now be called Windows Mobile Classic.

Better yet, just ignore my posts unless you have lots of time trying to decipher what I mean to say.

– The iPhone is getting dated and stale.

– The HD2 will have better specs and perform better than the iPhone.

– I like that non-iPhone handsets have expandability and ability to upgrade: the HD2 will have an expansion slot that will handle 32GB microSD chips. The iPhone keeps users handcuffed to the brand through planned obsolescence. E.g., you want more capacity you have to buy a new phone, not just a chip, like on 99.9% of all the other phones out there. Want an extended battery for long trips or where you won’t be able to charge the battery? Can do on the HD2, can’t do on the iPhone.

– The HD2 will run WinMo 6.5 and eventually WinMo 7. IMHO WinMo has far better customization possibilities, every aspect of the phone OS can be tinkered with. I like that.

– And this is a matter of preference, but phone ownership for the iPhone requires being an AT&T customer. No thanks.

– Phone ownership through AT&T is far more expensive than with T-Mo. So pay higher prices for an inferior product? That makes no sense to me.

– And just on moral grounds I won’t do business with Apple. Apple could easily put a microSD slot and consumer-removable battery on the iPhone. But they don’t, for a reason. That reason is to keep iPhone users captive to the product. That’s dishonest in my book, removing choice by the consumer. (All the arguments on why Apple won’t address the microSD and battery issues are without merit when you take into account the logic. Who could argue with a straight face that Apple is doing it right and all the other manufacturers are wrong.

Today, to force me to sell the TP2 I removed the SIM and put it into the 8120. It has a big “E” give me the ol’ stink eye (because it does not get 3G).

So it will be a tough few months waiting for the HD2.

And one phone not entering into anyone’s mind, but might mine, the rumored Microsoft Zune phone, that will be coming out next month (possibly.) It will have Windows 7 and will be sold in the same manner as the Nexus 1.

Will have to see what I think of that phone.

And I believe the rumors about the Zune phone, if for nothing else that such would explain Microsoft letting its mobile OS slip to 10% market share.
