Microsoft has said that the HTC HD2 will not be getting the Windows Phone 7 Series update. One reason for this is that the HTC HD2 doesn’t have the required three button layout.

Remember that touch screen comparison a few months ago? People were saying that the test was flawed due to human error. Well guess what? The same test is now done with a robot controlling the finger! So this time around you can’t actually blame the results on anything other than poor/good display quality. This time they have also done the test on a Palm Pre and Storm 2, in addition to the “old” Apple iPhone, HTC Droid Eris, Motorola Droid and Google Nexus One.
