Windows Phone 7 Looks Unusable

Engadget: Windows Phone 7 videos

we get a quick look at the Word editor — and as you might expect, it’s squeaky-clean and nearly UI-free, just like pretty much everything else in the platform.

It’s all black-and-white, and there’s no cursor or control highlighting.

“UI-free” might look cool, but where do you tap?

Watch @ 1:08 in the second video:

  • Tap “add comment” button
  • Tap to select the only visible text field
  • There’s no indication of when it’s actually selected
  • There’s no cursor while typing
