Microsoft shafts HTC phone users | |

Microsoft has decided that users of Windows Mobile 6.X devices, including HTC's just-launched HD2, will not be allowed to upgrade to its Windows 7 Phone OS. This news will miff owners of HTC's highly-praised HD2 touchscreen smartphone, particularly since the HD2 meets many of the criteria laid down in Microsoft's 'Chassis 1' specifications. |

As a HD2 owner, If confirmed, this is quite disappointing.

The summary says it meets "many" of the criteria. If it doesn't meet all, they shouldn't allow it. It may not run well, and that would be a PR problem.
On the other hand, HTC and Microsoft could have worked together to make sure it met the criteria before it was released. TD |
