Seem something is really happening at the Microsoft. The old coding codes of the past 10-15 years seem has become too difficult to 'crack'; hence the new generation of coders and programmers can only build a 'wrapping code around it' rather than being able to fix it from inside. Such seems to produce user interface concept and user experience implementaion that still 'stand still' like that (as boring and as complicated as ever), no mater what simplicity, power, integration, seamless-ness and elegance that the market really wants. Oh My!

Unimpressive widgets; poor photos despite an 8-megapixel camera; sluggish at times; every surface is touch-sensitive so inadvertent taps are frequent.
