Smart Phone Apps

Is the Windows 7 Phone marketplace ever going to get apps like Angry Birds, Doodle Jump, or ANY good ones?

I recently bought a Samsung Focus from AT&T, it’s a Windows Phone, I’ve had 3 iPhones and I wanted to have a new platform. From what I heard W7 phones seemed pretty cool… Well now that I’ve had the phone for a couple of months and it’s not ‘new’ to me anymore, I now realize it sucks compared to Apple and Android, ESPECIALLY with the horrible application marketplace. Seriously any decent app on the thing is like $5.99… Anyways I’ve heard rumors of the marketplace getting those apps, but when!? I’m about ready to take it to AT&T and try to switch the phone for an iPhone or something.

Windows Phone 7 is getting Angry Bird on May 25 and Doodle Jump in the Spring (although Microsoft has yet to announced an exact date). Microsoft has been demoing both games so they are definitelty coming.

You have to realized that Windows Phone launched 6 months ago while iOS launched 3 years ago and Android 2 years ago.
