Verizon to get first Windows Phone 7 device this week?

According to WinRumors, Verizon may be ready to launch its first Windows Phone 7 device this week, on May 12th.

The HTC 7 Trophy, which has been delayed for a month, should be ready for official launch as early as this week, say sources.



Verizon's roadmap originally showed the device with an April 15th launch and $200 price tag with contract.

That price is expected to stick.

The Trophy will ship with the "NoDo" firmware update that brings copy and paste and performance upgrades.

  From what I hear about Windows phones, they're kinda buggy, but I do really enjoy that carriers can't force you to keep certain themes or pre-installed programs on your Windows phone without having to unlock it like most other devices.

  Verizon release dates are the biggest joke. No one knows when these phones are coming out, especially Verizon.
