People don't use it? Retarded corperation.

I think they have been food poisoned by eating too much apple

"a Data detection service oughta be enough for anyone"

I think some idiot at MS wanted the success of the iPhone so bad, that he decided they should just copy it straight off, flaws and all.

How about some product analyzing..?

Well, I guess my next smartphone will have an Android OS... thanks Microsoft for making my decision so easy.

They forget that this OS is the closest to a desktop OS that they series ever got. The appeal of this OS will attract different market segments, so their previous experience is useless.

Don't be dumb microsoft! If you take away features, there's always the people that will hack it into them! Look at Apple and their mistakes!

"the iPad/Phone/Touch sucks cuz it doesn't have (previously copy and paste) multitasking !!!!!" - chant heard by thousands of MS fanboys over the past months.

Being the number 1 phone company in the States ??

My 5 year old Ericsson K550i has both copy and paste functionality as well as phone number detection! And they can't get both? LOLLLLL
EPIC FAIL no2 (Apple still holds number 1)

They could be even bigger if people didn't have to jailbreak their phones to take full use of them. Their app store is a joke and their customer policy is to treat them like thieves.

No I'm sorry.. apple are still a greater fail/pain the backside than microsoft

Apple limit everything you can't/can have on an iphone etc...

This is hilarious!

apple got flamed for years over this....now that they do have cut and paste, now Micro$oft doesn't.

just hilarious!

Cant express my dissapointment enough. I was looking forward to telling my customers to buy this phone, now I have cancelled the mobile development project and will look else where for mobile solutions.

 

[tayb]

Wow. The lack of multi-tasking is fine with me really but no flash sucks and no copy and paste is just downright ridiculous. What next, no multimedia messaging?

Thanks but no thanks MS.

 

[lueszu]

my Sony Ericsson Z310 can copy and paste phone numbers and emails... why microsoft why????

In other news, Windows Phone 7 developers say: "640K of memory should be enough for anybody."

 

[cammmy]

I'm really hoping it's all a big joke being played by the king of all Trolls somewhere.

 

[long2know]

My Symbian based touch phone copies and pastes. I have to agree, though, that I rarely if ever use the feature. I do however disagree with that being the logic for omitting a feature.

You mean that M$ hasn't learned from Apple's entirely stupid mistakes?
