[jbinbi]

I really like the new windows smartphone OS. I played with a nokia 900 at costco, it was really nice.

There are no threads that I can find under winmo on this forum, pls redirect me if there are.

otherwise, just looking to see if there has been any rumors etc about vzw coming out with a windows phone , nokia or other say by the end of this year. thanks.

There was a rumor that Verizon was going to pick up the nokia lumia, not sure which one, but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it. If you want a little wp7 love you could put the home screen app "windows launcher7 on your droid. It's kind of nice and I have it in my rotation of various launchers.
I don't think wp7 is going to be a super super successful OS. It is struggling and unless the likes of Verizon embraces it, it will probably always remain generally an unknown, unused operating system by most people.

True, there isn't much action in the sub-forum section dedicated to Win Mobile/Win Phone phones on Verizon. The default is to only show the last 30-days. You need to manually select a much larger time span to see what few threads there are in that section.

However, that should be a really good indication that there is very little, if any, interest in Win Mobile/Win Phone phones amongst Verizon users. I had a few Win Mobile phones, the last being the Fathom, but gave up with Microsoft's FU attitude toward Win Mobile users and switched to android.

Verizon has said that LTE support would be key to offering more WP7 devices. I would expect to see something in the future. Probably when Apollo based devices start rolling out.

I'm also a fan of WP7 but Verizon's only current offering doesn't have hotspot capability which is essential to me.

I just upgraded to the Galaxy Nexus. If Verizon had a Nokia Lumia, I'd seriously have considered it.
