That could be the problem, according to the girl at At&t she said it does need the new 4g simcard to work properly (I got my Titan online during 1 penny sale). She seems very knowledgeable (compare to most of the att rep) and she was the first rep who actually was positive about Windows Phone.
edit: nvm then if choasblade use the new simcard and still having problem. I can't said I have notice any problem on mine.

Eh, I'd disagree with you on the innovation front. WP7 is the most innovative phone OS platform since the original iOS unveiling. Andoid......not so much.
I'd say it's related to feature sets and what you find useful. Take for example Chrome browser for Android 4.0. Syncs my bookmarks with my PCs, I can access the tabs I have open on my PCs from my phone and the browser itself is extremely fast and smooth. That kind of integration in their product is something I love.

what's innovative about WP7?
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
No, I don't think innovation is related to comparing feature sets at all. In fact, its quite the opposite. I think we're having two different arguments, or at the very least you conflated innovation and feature lists where it really wasn't applicable. Having Chrome in your phone isn't any more innovative than me having Word in mine.
I'd say the idea of hubs is innovative. Good enough for Google to try its hands at the People Hub in ICS. The panorama UI is innovative, and once again ICS is integrating more panning into its menu system as opposed to scrolling. Live tiles are innovative. Having the OS integrate 3rd party services rather than utilize separate apps is innovative, and certainly both Apple and Google are moving in that direction. I remember Touchwiz trying its hand at integrating FB into the contact list years ago, but it was superficial, and certainly nothing as innovative as being able to combine Twitter/FB with that contact, pinning it to your start screen, and getting updates from it.
The only thing new with the contacts in ICS is an official API that lets third parties plug in easier. Apps have always been able to dump info into the contact database. (twitter/facebook/linked/etc in if they choose to, instead of having to strike deals with MS for integration.)
Panoramic UI? That screen swiping was introduced in 2.1(maybe in 2.0) in the news and weather app.
Live tiles? You mean widgets?
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
I haven't used WebOS extensively, but its not just dumping FB info or Twitter info into contacts that makes the people hub innovative imo, there is additional functionality that I mentioned, including the ability to isolate that contact in your start screen and have a "feed" of that person, or simultaneously sending them messages on their FB wall and Twitter from there (and vice versa), or starting a FB/MSN/text chat right from their contact page, interchangeably. And if all of that was previously on WebOS (I honestly don't know), then the similar integration of services in other areas, such as the pictures hub and the video/music hub, was innovative when the OS made its debut, even if it will increasingly become the norm now on other platforms.
And I could counter with bing audio integration with the zunepass.... the way it can seamlessly go listening to streaming is innovative. There are a ton of little things all these platforms can do that could be considered innovative.... zunepass on wp7 is one of those imo.
hubs in general I also call innovative.... how the picture hub automatically has your skydrive/facebook/etc pictures in there, how the office hub just has all your docs in there from skydrive/sharepoint, etc. Sure you can sorta get some of that functionality on android but its not even close to how well the hub's work.

lol, from the guy who defended Google's/Motorola's bullshit about the essential patents and spends his day in the android thread. Do you guys plan your day around trolling the Windows Phone thread or do you just magically happen to show up in here to make shitty posts?
Liked your posts in other threads but I guess you gotta join unkown moron and copernisuck on the ignore list. Otherwise I'm gonna get sick reading your guys posts where you play salty biscuit every time you think about the all mighty Google.
Are you retarded on your own or did CopernIsuck brainwash you?(rhetorical question obviously since I put you on ignore.)
610?
3.2-inch display
3 MP camera
Windows Phone Tango
256MB RAM
The device is expected to be priced at $225 in fully unlocked mode. We have to wait till Nokias official announcement to confirm these detail
More pics
Pocketnow expects will have a 5 megapixel camera, contrary to the rumours of a 3 megapixel version.
If it's priced cheap enough (take into consideration a Lumia 710 is £150 here) I think the 610 could well be a great asset for WP7 if they price it cheap enough, I'm thinking a very aggressive £99 price.

It looks cheap, but $225 unlocked is not cheap.
Btw, where's the MWC 2012 thread?

Agreed, over here the Lumia 710 is ~$236 (direct conversion of price) so if the 610 is going to be $225 it's too much.
They need an aggressive price point of £99/$150 in by opinion to really get Windows Phone moving at the low end of the market, it'd be an easy win against the shite entry level Android devices.

I paid about 230 for a new and unlocked Optimus 7 in December 2010. Sure, it was eBay and I got a bit lucky, but even then the normal price was about 300 for a non-crippled phone.
In the states, unsubsidized Windows Phone are at least $400 new. Only the 710 is $330+.

i was asking a serious question. or do you not have an answer?
Looks like Apple GAF, Google GAF, and Microsoft GAF don't care.
It scares them to have to come together as one.

With our platform hover around anemic 2%, it make you wonder why they are trolling. Are they still butthurt from Nokia deal with Microsoft? Need to prove that Google is better because they "do no evil" (what a load of bs since the company is just as shitty and evil as Microsoft).
Anyway, I am just tired of checking this thread for news and end up having to scroll through essay by Android fans or shitty remark by Cop and his cohorts.

its because they know they can't pull the same shit in the iphone or apple thread.
I take it you're not referring to me, cause I'm just kidding around, in a good mood.
Nah, you're not one of the salty ones.

You spelled your username wrong.
Coco is adorable, so unlike the hyper intelligent nerdy Android types. He has a KIN right? He have a KIN studio page? Wasn't he in this?

I always wanted kin for being so obscure
I don't know how it didn't become a underground hit with the hipsters.
