Does Microsoft Still Think the iPhone 4 Is Apple’s Vista?

MG Siegler has some tasty claim chowder:

“It looks like the iPhone 4 might be their Vista, and I’m okay with that.”

That was Microsoft COO Kevin Turner during his keynote speech this past July at the company’s Worldwide Partner Conference in Washington. To be exact, he gave that speech on July 14, two days before Apple’s “Antennagate” press conference. At that point, talk about the iPhone 4’s antenna was at a fever pitch. And there were plenty who (foolishly) believed Apple would have to do a recall.
