Microsoft on iPhone 4: It’s Apple’s Vista

Not again. If there’s such a thing as a backhanded insult, Microsoft certainly pulled it off. Microsoft’s chief operating offcier labels the iPhone 4 as ‘Vista,’ poking fun at Apple in the process.

“One of the things I want to make sure you know today is that you’re going to be able to use a Windows Phone 7 and not have to worry about how you’re holding it to make a phone call,” Turner said, referring to the Microsoft mobile operating system set to debut on smartphones this fall.

Tough talk for a product that hasn’t even been released yet.
