For those of us who thought the name Windows Phone 7 Series was too much of a mouthful, Microsoft has some deservedly good news: it will now be called Windows Phone 7. Period.
Windows Phone 7, due to release in late 2010
No more WP7S, no more Series…just WP7, and Windows Phone 7…much to the happiness of journalists, developers and involved users everywhere. The happily truncated name was announced on Microsoft’s Windows Phone official Twitter account, with the chirpy words: “Tis the season for Series finales. We’ve got one too – dropping the ‘Series’ and keeping the ‘Windows Phone 7.’ Done.” Talk about droppings on Twitter!
This move will not entail any technical changes, but is simply a change in branding.
