So I have to give dell kudos for making a portrait slider phone look… well… sexy. And the specs with Windows Phone 7 do look promising (but until Microsoft lets me play with a Windows Phone 7 device all I can do is speculate of course). I’ll wait until I can see what Windows Phone 7 can do before I get super excited about this one, and also how it feels to type on a slider like this… What do you guys think? Look like something you could use?

  1. Hey! Doesn’t this look like Nokia X6???

    To me both devices are too similar… except this one beats Nokia’s 😉
