I think WM 6.1 did that to a big extent. It seems to address "exactly" some of the biggest complaints still in WM6. Unfortunately the way the game works for everyone except Apple, is that the Carriers decide if you get that update for your phone. And I guess the way business works, if they started flashing around the coolness of WM7 too soon. Well then that will kill the market on their current OS and devices that are just now getting released and marketed. Not good business either. It moves slower than that... True.

The only point I would make is, most of us are not software developers, but software users, albeit knowledgeable. I think as such we expect large devs like MS [is that an understatement] to hear and respond to our most voiced complaints. :) You make some really good points, and I really enjoyed your comments over at JAMM, and this is a great post!
