Microsoft seem to be on a bit of a roll at the moment. Not content with rewriting their mobile OS and unleashing Windows Phone 7 Series on us, they’re also rumoured to be developing their own range of mobile phones.
Called Project Pink, the phones form part of a new range from Microsoft that comprises the Microsoft Pure, and, oddly, the Microsoft Turtle, each of which is a new smartphone based on its new mobile OS.
Today we learn that the phones will be released on Verizon in the US on April 20th, and across the UK and the rest of Europe on Vodafone shortly after.
But what is Microsoft Project Pink phone, and are the phones any good?
Read on after the jump for more details.
Microsoft phone rumours
Rumours of a Microsoft phone have been around as long as rumours of a Sony PSP phone. With the Sony phone, they stem from the desire of people to own such a thing. With the Microsoft phone, it kind of makes sense, even if nobody actually desires one!
Windows Mobile was such an awful mobile OS that nobody would have wanted a Microsoft branded phone that carried it. Initial rumours had a Microsoft phone being based on its Zune MP3 player, as a counter-strike against Apple who turned their iPod MP3 player into a phone.
