I honestly can’t believe that but I’ve been unable to find one. no cut and paste (and yes, I know the early iPhones never had cut and paste either, but we are supposed to be progressing here.) There is no OCS/Lync client available for Windows Phone 7. It does email and calendar well, but that is to be expected.Ī few other things I don’t like. no biggie, except you can’t disable this so if you are like me and don’t want your live ID contacts to sync to your phone, you need to ensure that your live ID is not your hotmail account. What I did not like was how it requires a live ID to setup the phone and then automatically syncs those contacts to your phone as well. I like how it brings your contacts and Facebook together. It’s responsive and quick and visually the interface is very slick. certainly better than all previous Windows devices I have used. Windows Phone 7 – In short, I think its good. Before you start hurling abuse my way (this is a Microsoft centric blog after all, right?) I should mention that I have probably tried every Windows Mobile device out there, from the very first HP Ipaq’s, WM 2003 through to WM 6.5 but at the end of the day it was the iPhone that really changed the way I use a mobile device. I use an iPhone, and I make no excuses for the fact that I love my iPhone. Before I share my thoughts with you, perhaps I’ll give you a little background. I spent the last month testing a Windows Phone 7 device, The LG E900 to be exact. it is a frequently discussed topic amongst my friends and colleagues though and everyone generally has their own opinion.

I don’t often have much to say about mobile devices.
