Agreed, but I would word it another way. More like: "if they hadn't screwed up every step after the announcement." Seriously, they really fumbled every possible move of this thing. They took forever to release the phone, their marketing strategy was askew from the get-go, and then the phone was way too small and FAR too cheaply made/underpowered. Aside from that, they did everything right

I really wish we could see what might have happened if they had put forward the best possible product. I think it would have made for a strong third competitor to Apple and Google, and would have certainly killed Windows Mobile/Phone 7.
