Well I went to the T Mobile store saturday and was checking out the phones like any geek looking to change. Though I myself am by choice stuck on the mostly stable blackberry platform. Other members of my family want other options. I am open to the open platform of the droid, so I start looking at phones, pick one up and start playing with it, then after bout 2 minutes spot to my horror the flag key. Yup it was Windows in a droid clone. To make it worse it was in the middle of a row with 6 others that actually had the Android OS on them. Plus to make it worse, the phone was less expensive. Yes, Free just to look more appealing. I let the salesman do his pitch, not once did he mention it was not a droid or that it was. I bet though I can't find the apps I want in a Windows platform. MS has stooped to a new low. Disguising itself as something more popular just to gain sales and to lock you into its use. Even if functionality is drastically reduced and just not there. So I say, be warned, that flashy new phone, may not really be Android.
