I've seen previews of Microsoft SmartPhones and I think they could have a good product there. Unfortunately, I just don't see the product catching on in the general market place. For example, I don't see my father ever getting a smartphone so that he can check his email or send SMS when he's away from home and check the sports scores and movie showtimes.

The general information I've seen seems to indicate they think the smart phone would appeal to the general population. I don't see that. I can see it appealing to techies and wannabe techies, but not to the general public.


Would I buy one? Sure, I probably would. Would everyone? I don't think so. Even the smallest SmartPhone is going to be bigger than the little Morotola flip phone from what I've seen. Although I freely admit that I need to do more research on it again.
