Kind of a big announcement from Microsoft and LG at MWC just now -- LG's going to make Windows Mobile its primary smartphone operating system, and it sounds like there's going to be some serious cash involved from both sides to make it happen. No specific device plans yet, but that's going to change big fast -- LG's going to drop 50(!) WinMo handsets on us through 2012. Yikes. Hope you're ready for some S-Class WinMo action, guys.

Great idea. Hope one is a cross between the HTC Diamond 2 & HD. With the Motorola rumor, its clear the game is heating up. Hope they have their sights set beyond the next iPhone release, and upgradeable to WM 6.5 & 7. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's grown extremely frustrated with the inadequate response to the iPhone to date. Problem is both carriers & manufacturers. Yes, worth waiting for a mature product. Now get us our phones. I need a major network, would switch between ATT & Verizon if one lags much more or fails to market competitively.
