Verizon Finally Getting Serious About Windows Phone; So Advanced, It's Actually Simple

Summary: Verizon has only offered a single Windows Phone device over the last two years, but looks to finally be supporting Microsoft's mobile OS with three devices coming soon.

Regular readers know I enjoy using Windows Mobile devices and I recommend individuals give the foundation a try before evaluating it. With only about a 3 percent business, I have previously mentioned this slow adopting is in part due to Verizon's indifferent attitude towards Windows Mobile. It looks like this is FINALLY going to modify with Windows Mobile 8 as we now see a Windows Mobile 8 splash web page on the Verizon website. Thanks to WPCentral for the heads-up on the Verizon webpage modify.

As Bob Ballmer mentioned at the Windows Mobile 8 launch event on Thursday of this week Verizon is getting the Nokia Lumia 822, HTC 8X, and Samsung Odyssey. You have to love the Verizon tag line for Windows Mobile 8 too, "Introducing The new Windows Mobile. So advanced, it's actually simple." Windows Mobile 8 is the most personal cellular phone os available with the Start screen being unique to each person.

We don't yet know what color 8X we will see on Verizon, but rumours is they will get black and red. There are also lots of optimistic individuals that want to see Verizon pick up a Lumia 920 version when the AT&T exclusive ends, hopefully at the beginning of 2013. I personally think Windows 8 will help individuals take a closer look at Windows Mobile 8, but that will devote some time so it will likely take here we are at Windows Mobile 8 to gain in the smart phone place. At least now, they have Verizon on board with AT&T and T-Mobile so they have a fighting chance.
