A Phone Running XP? – Yes – Really!

I get the feeling that Microsoft might be forced to extend the service-lifetime of their Windows XP operating system beyond 2014 at this rate. Why? Because the latest generation of smartphones all come with an amazing array of applications, and this particular smartphone runs XP.

Since September 2009, Chinese company ITG have been working on a smartphone that would run Windows XP. This has now come to fruition, and the prototype is released.

The unit’s specs are as follows: –

  • Camera Specifications: CMOS, 300k/1.3 Million
  • Ports: 1 x earphone jack,1 x microphone jack,Docking Connector (include VGA output signal ), 1 x USB 2.0, SIM Slot

…And there’s even a video of it on You Tube.

(…Complete with Linux zealots saying something similar to: -

“The screen’s far too small; but if it had Linux on it then it would be perfect.”

Win-v-Linux

- Yes I wonder about such people too; such as how they managed to survive into their early teens. Modern-day fuckwittery among a certain section of society appears to be unparalleled since records began.

This is going to throw up a number of problems if Microsoft get funny about it:

Firstly; are the softies happy about this venture? Secondly; if MS do indeed end the Windows XP product lifecycle in 2014, as currently expected, then future buyers of this technology might feel somewhat short-changed.

What do you think? Please leave a comment.
