Microsoft changes mind, Windows Phone 7 will *not* support WebKit CSS property →

Let me get this straight: Microsoft, for their “iPhone killer” (a vaporware device that practically rebels against usability, planned for introduction in Q4 2010, where it will face over 85 million iPhone OS devices as well as the 4th generation iPhone) starts to consider adopting WebKit CSS properties and online commenters talk them out of it??

And they actually listen??

Did the web dev community just punk Microsoft?

Jason Long:

Earlier UI concepts of Metro in Windows Phone 7 Series. Lots of interesting screens here, all falling into the “fun and stylish as graphic design, but questionable as UI design” department for me.

This looks a bit better than what was actually debuted. It’s laughable that words going off the screen can pass as “innovative” design.

Gizmodo thinks Windows Phone 7 Series will suck for business. I’m sure it has nothing to do with that gorgeous UI.
