Paramount and Microsoft Team Up For Windows Phone 7 Movie Releases

hothardware.com — Do you watch movies on your phone? We have found the answers to that question to be fairly mixed, with some people saying that it just gets too cramped over time, and others really enjoying the portability. But there's no question that multimedia is booming on phones, and there's not much hope of slowing down the revolution at this point.... Dec 19, 2010 View in Crawl 4

I've seen some HOT Windows Phone 7 devices. Check out HTC's HD7. That is a NICE phone and the OS is pretty slick.

The Dell Venue Pro looks nice to, too bad that they are as rare as a girl here on Digg. (oh snap!).

I've had mine since Friday. WP7 is great, most people who bash it haven't picked one up with their greasy hotdog fingers. Stable as balls and very quick. Battery life is s**t but that's Dell's fault.

Partnership of Microsoft and Vivid will be more effective.

When I read the headline, at first I thought they were making a movie *about* Windows Phone 7, inspired by The Social Network...

Don't know if this stunt will be enough to compete with iPhone, iPad, and everything else Apple. Either way in sticking with Microsoft.

This is nice I guess. Anything that helps the platform at this point.

I love my Samsung Focus. What I want though, is a spot addon and timeline website like they had with the kin. make it an addon or something. I'd pay 20 bucks for it.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

movies are a killer app for phones? I do not get it. They are fun to demo when I'm in the store or when I am showing off my phone to my friends, but every time I try to sit and watch a movie on them I am done with the experience after about ten minutes. Holding a screen is not relaxing. Watching a tiny screen is not engaging.
