A Windows Phone 7 hands on demo

For those who have not seen it in action, there is a video here of Windows Phone 7 in action (courtesy of PocketNow.

Running on an LG device with what I am told may have only been a 666MHz processor, I think you'll agree that the OS is pretty impressive. The screen is , I believe, AMOLED and a super AMOLED would liven the view up even more.

Particularly impressive is the multitouch functionality and the new SegoeWP font is really nice and clean.

I love the way that everyone who demos the OS goes to the Xbox tile , brings up the avatar and thinks "Wow". I'm going to be really impressed when I see someone actually use Xbox Live on the OS (about 0.1% of users I bet)
