Windows Phone 7: No upgrades with Windows Mobile 6, includes HTC HD2

Some disappointing news to bring to you now, especially if you own a Windows Mobile 6 handset. Microsoft has just announced that there will be no upgrades to the new Windows Phone 7 Series OS.

As reported from BGR, the HTC HD2 was thought to be a key candidate for an upgrade to the slick new OS, but that won’t be the case now, sadly.

Microsoft states that they have ‘very specific requirements’ for Windows Phone 7, so much that their current lineup of handsets will ‘not’ be available for upgrade.

Not impressed? We didnt think you would be. Looks like you’ll need to buy a new handset in order to try Windows Phone 7 out for yourself.

Let us know what you think of this.
