I have it installed on my ASUS touchscreen and it is faster than Vista, but that is the only improvement I have noticed as far as useability. Not Windows 7, Windows Mobile 7: Windows Phone 7 Series: everything you ever wanted to know -- Engadget That said everyone I've talked to that uses Windows 7 says the usability is excellent and a great improvement over Vista so I'm surprised with the above statement. As far as Zune vs Touch there are many people that feel your way and there are many that feel the other way but either way the UI isn't "standard" Microsoft. I was just pointing out that Microsoft has been trying new things recently. Report
March 8, 201016 yr comment_332942 OK that may be fair about WM 7 as I have not tried it. As far as Windows 7 , yes the useability is better compared to Vista for almost everything, but not for the touchscreen specific parts, which is what worries me about courier. Report

May 4, 201016 yr comment_350190 I think HP decided that it would rather use i's newest OS (via Palm acquisition) than struggle with the mess that is Windows 7 Phone 7 Mobile 7, whatever. So while they killed their Win7 tablet I doubt they killed their tablet. Report
