    WoW looking Brill although I don't like the Green&Pick since it makes the phone look cheap and horrible. But anyway 13Mpx camera! Thats awesome and nice 32GB of storage is pretty sweet as well.

    But what will they charge for it? Hope it won't be as expensive as the iPhones... Best of luck to Microsoft really looking forward to this release.

    & whats Ballmer been smoking?

    It's nice to see a Windows Phone article that doesn't have Emil's standard last-two-paragraph-cut-and-paste job in it.

    Those bricks should be labeled as hand tools. And the "brilliant" square menus and icons add a deeper sensation of bulkiness. And then, instantly, the BSoD image comes to mind even if it had nothing to do with it. Man, these guys haven`t learnt anything from Apple, everything must be curved smooth and light to the eye, is not technology that wins, is style and you can always overprice style.

    This article is written by Jose. Has anyone else noticed that there haven't been any articles by Emil for a week or so? I've found the quality of and pleasure in reading Techspot is inversely proportional to the number of articles by Emil.
