I'm eligible for an upgrade come late August, and probably will be saving it for this if a Mango-based phone comes to Verizon this fall/winter.

I'm curious to see how WP7 will interface with W7 first-hand (currently using an iPhone 4 with my MacBook Air).

Hmm, curious to know. Some call it WP7.1 and WP7.5 is rumoured to be Tango. Which is which? Is it truly 7.5?

Will this version support desktop sync with Outlook?

In all fairness, there has definitely been less spam and it is taken down much quicker, tide is turning!

They do their best to take it down quickly all right, but the tide isn't turning. Pumping harder only gets you so far when your boat is leaky.

For a tech site, it's amazing how little they seem to be able to do against spammers. There are plenty of simple yet efficient solutions. For example, they could require a captcha every time you try to post anything until you prove you're a real Tom's user, for example by obtaining some of those forum badges.

The fact that your post was followed by a spammer is pretty much the definition of irony. : )

Indeed a valid question lost within all the eyecandy probably. I suppose Wintendo also turns to the cloud for their stuff in 2011 after enforcing every jackass to use outlook for the past 2 decades! I guess I'll get a Nokia C7 instead.
