I felt like I was in a purple haze when I heard that Microsoft introduced its rehashed new Kin phones.   Kin, if you haven't heard, is the new black 2003, which is the last time I saw these clunky looking phones. I was so disoriented, I even checked my calendar to make sure it really was 2010.

Doesn't this old new phone look like the Blackberry 7230 from seven years ago?

Microsoft you really didn't outdid yourself this time. The Kin One is so -- ummm -- plain and uninspiring.

If you aren't even going to try, why bother putting this crap out?  Which phone is this supposed to compete with?

Actually, I think I know the answer to that question.  None of them.  Because nobody is going to buy this FAIL.

Microsoft, you're tired!  If Apple is virility, you are impotence. You really need to inject some techno-Viagra into your products, otherwise consider changing your name to Micro-softy.
