Marc Hopstein, director for APAC Mobile Communications Business at Microsoft Singapore. said that about 93% of their customers are very satisfied with the Windows Phone 7, and about 90% are recommending the phone to friends and families.
"We have been building on the concept of smartphone for easier communicating, education and Internet that are important for consumers looking for Windows Phone. And Mango is taking applications and Internet, how people interact with each other to the next level. Communication today is not just about phone calls, emails or a short message;its more of a proliferation of communications that go across social networks, blogging and other interactions with each other. Microsoft is summarizing the ways people interact with each other through people and groups of people, rather than going in and out of individual application. Communication has become people-centric," Hopstein said.
Microsoft showcased some of the new features of Windows Phone "Mango" which include Twitter, LinkedIn and Viadeo integration in the People Hub,and built-in barcode reader (above pic)that will showthe link to the website or content almost immediately. According to the software giant, Nokia will launch their Windows Phone 7 with Mango in the Mango official release time frame - Q4 this calendar year. Also look out forWindows Phone 7 from other manufacturers including Fujitsu, Acer, Toshiba and ZTE.
