Microsoft leaks first clear picture of LG E900 Optimus 7, may come to Vodafone

August 25, 2010 | By Surur

The LG E900 Optimus 7 may come to vodafone.

You know the Windows phone 7 launch is near when even Microsoft starts leaking pictures via twitter. Microsoft Netherlands recently tweeted this picture of the LG E900, supposedly called to be called the LG Optimus 7 ( a name most of our readers approve of I see).

The picture also reveals some additional tiles, including a Panorma shot, media sharing and most tellingly a Vodafone 360 tile, although Microsoft did indicate in a follow-up tweet that the presence of the tile does not necessarily mean the phone will come to Vodafone, as it may just be a “test environment”.

The picture also confirms the device does not have the same odd button placement of the LG C900, with all the keys more or less on the same level.

Having had a closer and clearer look at the handset, the device does appear pretty impressive, especially if its as thin as shown in the video.

Do our readers agree? Let us know below.

Look at the top-right-Tile!
Windows LIVE Messenger fpr WP7 finally confirmed?

At last weeks Gamescom in Köln, Germany a Microsoft-Guy told me, that he has no Idea / "can't tell me something" of WLM on Windows Phone 7.

WLM is THE most used App on my HTC T7272 with Windows Mobile 6.5.3.
Without WLM I don't switch to WP7!

Are we sure that's not just some-one's avatar?

Fairly sure it is just an avatar…

You can clearly see that that's the People hub and that Messenger icon is being used as an avatar for one of the contacts.

Nevertheless, I'd be surprised if we don't hear about Messenger soon, especially with all these front-facing cameras.

Diego!

Yeah… it does look kinda nice, though after seeing HTC device with sliding out speakerphone, everything else looks kinda plastic. I really like this one, though I'm not sure if I'll get one.

if its going to vodafone can it be possible that WP7 is coming to Verizon too?

Whats the live tile in the bottom right hand… media something…
the icon looks like its connecting the phone to the TV….. possibly via DLNA??? could be cool.

Since I'm in the EU it'd be nice to get more info on what phones will be coming here as well, and not just the ones we've seen for the US.
