What a difference between a Steve Jobs presentation and Microsoft presentation. First the camera work - the guy giving the demo is pointing to the screen showing us information on the phone and the camera never pans to it so we have no idea what he s trying to show us. Then he shows us how social the phone is - he talks about his female "friend" who he's had a falling out with and she's no longer his bff so he clicks the broken heart button which removes her. he then tells us about his wife who he moves into his x girlfriends space (i'm sure his wife loved that). so what? he was cheating on his wife then broke up with his girlfriend. During the presentation he was showing us a live phone then when he hits the office applications and photos and suddenly is showing us slides - so i guess half the phone isn't finished - jobs would never show off a half finished product with slides. no one in the audience claps at key points in the presentation - no one cheers. just dead science. then they try to show us how you can find a sushi restaurant (how original) on the phone - he clicks a search - if finds some restaurants then he clicks on one to show us information about it. guess what there is none - they say that they haven't finished updating information in Europe - so idiot show us one you did update. They talked about xbox live but show us no games - What a mess - and i think the phone looks like a mess.
 
the guy there really wanted some cheer from the crowd, just like Steve Jobs pauses in between for a cheer up, here i guess there is yawns lol:p and the other guy who was talking about rest of the stuff, he was actually looking at something and reading or i guess he learn't the whole stuff and just said it there

Thus the reason the phones/OS won't be ready until HOLIDAY 2010.

Pretty pathetic, in my opinion. Why show a product that MAY BE half way ready for production?? Would not surprise me if the final product was much different from what was shown.

Didn't you hear Steve's justification for revealing the phone half way? "Avoid Messy Rumors, Leaks and all those hiccups":rolleyes::confused: lol :D
 
Remember when they were showing off Vista? The voice control completely malfunctioned and then later in the presentation they got a BSOD?
