Before anyone says "about time", I'd just like to add: compare the WP7 initial release timeline to the Android initial release timeline. (Can't reasonably compare to iOS because WP7 and Android are multi-manufacturer and multi-carrier right out of the gate, whereas iOS is a closed system on limited carriers.)

Android v1.0 - 2008-10-21

Android v1.1 - 2009-02-09 (111 days)

Android v1.5 - 2009-04-30 (191 days)

Note: v1.5 ("Cupcake") was the first generally available update. v1.1 was exclusively for the T-Mobile G1.

WP7 v1.0 - 2010-10-21 in EU region (earliest date)

WP7 v1.1 - 2010-03-23 (153 days)

MS launched a brand new platform with 10 different devices on 60 carriers in 30 countries. Google launched a brand new platform on 3 HTC phones (Dream, T-Mobile G1, and Era G1), and if you look at the manufacturer release history, things didn't start to take off until v1.5.

Haters gonna hate, I suppose.
