There has to be rumors of high spec models comming to us through forums I mean are there certain models the devs are watching and waiting for

It would say the Motorola Xoom because it has a unlockable bootloader.
See here.

Thanks for the reply I have now looked into it and agree this isn't a bad model ok there may be better that come out over the year but the early releases are usually the most modified thanks again shaun

Having done from a windows mobile world I hope it doesn't

Might as well install Mango on it.
having (dual-booting) MANGO on a desire s would be great but,
a) Not many people here are interested
b) Even if people are interested, no one is skilled enough to do it
c) It's not completely legal to port microsoft stuff. It's not open source like android.
don't think it can be done, and comming from a windows phone I don't hope it can

Even if someone did port, who cares? It's not like there's any demand for it.
On the flipside, I wouldn't mind vice-versa as I have alway found the Windows HTC models looked better than the Android ones imo.
Installing windows mobile on a perfectly good DS should be a punishable offence.
i have used my friend's windows phone 7 device(before i started using custom roms) for 5-10mins(i know that its very brief) & i seemed to like it a quite a bit,mostly because it seemed faster (when i was on stock ROM)
is there something im missing?or is it just that the brief time i spent fiddling with the phone not enough to tell me enough about the device?
(im just curious )

I tried it too at the phone store. I will agree its quite good. Fast and responsive. But it doesn't quite still well with me like the way Android does.

[Q]About Windows phone?

I'd like to ask that
will Windows phone probably running on HTC Sensation?
Since WP7 is so smooth and fast,
I'm really get interested in it though
This is a new, refreshing and interesting question that no one has ever asked.

Hi,
WP7 will not run on a Sensation.
Curious to the reason as to why? Is this "impossible"?

It is illegal
Android is open source, Windows isn't and needs a license

Hi,
WM is not open source.
Nevermind that then... Always worth a question... Grants knowledge

windows 7 or 8
The illegality isn't question on this site - or does it? You can find lot of devices which has windows ROM different than the original version. These devices has licence only the original version of windows, so I think that is same illegal.
Well, the question is: has any physical limitation (drivers, hardware) of this development? Anybody start to work on this curious job?

[?] Best WP7 currently 12-17-11

Hello, I know this is a opinionated thread but I'm currently debating on getting a WP7. I wanted to know what people consider the best WP7 on the market. I know most of them have similar internals and specs but what puts one over another in quality.
What things could I do with WP7? I know about chevron but if I do that what are my benefits outside of homebrew?
Would you guys recommend current generation WP7 or previous generation with Mango update?
I want to broaden my horizons and not just be a stuck to one of os.
Thank you,
Lilhugo

I don't know much about wp7 but the lumia and N9 from Nokia are supposed to be pretty good (pricey though). From what I here the only thing WP7 lacks is a large number of apps and the ability to customize to the degree that Android can. I have heard good things about the HTC Titan, and that can be had for cheaper than the Nokias.
HTC HD7S and Samsung Focus S
Thanks for the responses guys. Any reason why to get the hd7s or focus s as opposed to the newer lumia?
Anyone else know the benefits to jailbreak a wp7?

[Q] WM 1.5 for HTC Snap?

Good evening fellow forumers, I'ld like to know if there are any future developments for HTC Snap to upgrade to WM 7.5 as this phone is really handy and if it can upgrade to WM7.5 it would be really helpful.
Hi there,
I think this will be impossible due to phone hardware and touchscreen feature...so no it won't be happening.
On that note, thread closed
