We've been totally shitted on. From day 1 the platform has been a cluster fuck. That's not a rumor. That's facts.
From the bugs we got a launch, to the initial NoDo promises, to not everyone getting the post NoDo Update, to Mango rolling out weirdly for many, to Skype still be promised, to the current bug fix update not getting approved by all carriers, to MS back peddling on the carriers controlling updates, to non committal answers on Apollo updates for existing customers, to Skype finally rolling out but only in half assed late beta form etc....
The UI is frick'n genius as far as I'm concerned. Whomever it was at MS that had this wonderful brainstorm deserves a place among the top for OS UI industrial design. Everyone else at MS has been basically nothing but one giant cock block for getting things right and the platform rolling.
People were shited on by apple and google in the first generation and second generation of their platforms.
Hell people are still shitted on by google. Oh hey your year old phone wont get ICS and it took 8 months to get ginger bread , have a good day !
These companys want to make money and these products are constantly being improved it took apple generations of product to get the phone right and google is still working on andriod to get it right.
