Late March is when the Windows Phone 7 is coming to the Verizon network. I really wanted to jump ship from my Android phone to a Windows Phone 7, but now that they’ve signed with Nokia to allow other “exclusive” features with their phones, I’m not so sure. I would like to try one out for a month or so to see if it would fit an enthusiasts needs, but I don’t really want to go through the trouble with Verizon on switching phones back and forth…
The report follows on the heels of yesterday’s news that Sprint would be bringing the HTC Arrive, its first Windows Phone 7 handset, to consumers on the same day. That handset will ship with Microsoft’s first major update to its mobile operating system preinstalled. That’s the one that brings features like copy and paste, improved Marketplace search, and faster load times for some applications. WinRumors says the HTC 7 Trophy, which is the phone launching on Verizon, will also have that newer software version.
