This guy thinks that push notification is the least of it. "What differentiates Windows Phone 7 Series from iPhone is the same thing that made Zune so different from iPod: Social sharing. ... Microsoft is making social a platform that runs deep into Windows Phone 7 Series. ... It's one thing to use Facebook on a mobile phone. It's a whole other order of experience interacting around disparate content repositories, which is the differentiating direction Microsoft is taking Windows Phone 7 Series -- and it's a path Apple has failed to follow with iPhone. ... Apple's idea of social interaction is the push notification. It's a weak compromise that Microsoft seems ready enough to exploit (granted, Windows Phone 7 Series has push notifications, too)." http://bit.ly/dtyDkE -OR- http://www.betanews.com/joewilcox/article/Windows-Phone-7-Series-actually-looks-pretty-good/1268683306 ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
