Windows Phone Thoughts: LG Panther Heading to Hands of Developers

"Looks like that LG Panther (GW910) is getting around these days. 'Innovative Singapore' received not one but two of the prototype devices to actually start developing their WP7 software. If you recall, we reported on how Windows Phone 7 devices will be going out to developers soon and sure enough, that time has come. Not only do they show more images of the phone, but they have some of the not-yet-finalized packing and even a sample shot from the camera. Their brief hands on is repeated verbatim below. Needless to say, developers must be getting excited at the prospect of using actual WP7 hardware. We know we can't wait."

Sometimes you just need a physical phone to do development work, and certain developers are going to be grabbing an actual WP7 handset in the very near future. Now if we can just get some for the rest of us, we'll be happy!
