Microsoft giving a Windows Phone 7 to all employees...


Recommended Posts

A ton of Tweets right now about this, it was just announced on Microsoft MGX conference in Atlanta...

They've had them for months, hardly news. It's just the lower down employees are getting them now.

If you've gotten emails from any Microsofties lately, they have:

Sent from my Windows Phone

The "Sent from my Windows Phone" isn't proof that someone's using WP7. Windows Mobile 6.5 (and possibly earlier?) includes this in Outlook by default too.

Don't think so. All my WinMo phones (Kaiser, Imagio, HD2) always had a blank signature field.

It was Apple who started the whole "Sent from my XXXX" thing...

Oh might as well: Sent from my Dell Vostro 1700

Oh might as well: Sent from my Dell Laptop

The newer Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5 phones do include that and I'm equally against it.

Hmm, guess it was just the ROM that removed it or something. I remember on my Imagio it was "Sent from my Verizon Phone," but neither of my other 2 phones came with it.

And you broke the "sent from" chain! How could you :cry:

Actually, I'm pretty sure Blackberry started that.

    • Nah. They'll milk the current generation in terms of design - controllers, consoles, but no meaningful hardware improvements. This is one reason why people aren't buying Xbox hardware - it's stagnant.
    • Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.
    • YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS
