Microsoft shows the power of IE9 in Mango using another proprietary test
Share:
Of course, the fish bowl test was created by Microsoft, so it's tough to take the test seriously. Much like when people point to the Acid3 test on which almost no browsers have received a perfect score other than Opera. Why? Because Opera made the test. But, aside from creating the test, Microsoft was pretty fair in the setup.
Microsoft pitted a BlackBerry Torch against a DROID Charge, an iPhone 4 running iOS 5 beta 3, and what looks like an HTC HD7 running WP7 Mango. It's nice that at least the hardware is about on par. And, it's nice that they used iOS 5, although it seems that they could have grabbed a Gingerbread Android phone just to have the newest software all around.
Enjoy the video!

It actually looks more like an HTC Trophy or Surround. Notice how the screen size is smaller than that of the Samsung Charge. If it was an HD7, it would have the same screen size.

I agree with monkeybr. Windows 7 has a very nice os, but its too late. Apple and Android have taken over.

Never too late for something better.
Often too soon to give up.

Great to see such good support with HTML5, especially seeing as it is obviously getting closer to what flash is.
I have a HD7 and love it, can't wait for the Mango update!
Does anyone know the URL for this?

I am completely sold on W7. I am not sure if I can convince my Wife to upgrade yet, so I may have to wait until November. Mango looks like a beast of an upgrade. Microsoft and Nokia will spare no cost in promoting it. I am very excited.

By the way- the Mango update may be as soon as September. With all the news and demonstrations of it out there, this isn't a surprise. But Phonedog just posted a story where winners of a contest Microsoft is running will be awarded a new Mango updated phone in September.
