Bad news, HTC HD2 owners: Microsoft has finally come right out and confirmed our suspicions (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/04/htc-hd2-and-windows-phone-7-series-just-tell-us-no-microsoft/) that the mighty HTC HD2 won't be upgraded to Windows Phone 7 Series. Joe Belfiore just told us that the HD2 is "not compliant with the Windows Phone 7 Series hardware specifications (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/samsung-windows-phone-7-series-handset-makes-the-scene/)," which should end any of the lingering doubt that's clouded this issue (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/microsoft-sending-mixed-signals-on-windows-phone-7-series-upgrad/) since MWC. That certainly puts a damper on the HD2's upcoming launch on T-Mobile (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/htc-hd2-said-to-be-launching-march-24th-for-199-no-windows-pho/), but hey -- every Microsoft employee here at MIX is carrying one, so it's clearly the WinMo handset to get until it's eclipsed by 7 late in the year. Pour one out for the king, friends.Confirmed: HTC HD2 will not be upgraded to Windows Phone 7 series (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/15/confirmed-htc-hd2-will-not-be-upgraded-to-windows-phone-7-serie/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:59:00 EST.
