About a week ago Matt ran an article about the lack of porn on WP7. At the time it was all the rage since the content policies seemed to be new and shocking. But for those of you who followed the comments you may have seen Matt and I exchange thoughts and I pointed out that the Windows Mobile 6.5 content restrictions and the Windows Phone 7 content restrictions are pretty damn near identical…pretty near. Let’s take a look at all of the content policies for 6.5 and 7 and you can be the judge.

And yes the picture you see here was actually grabbed from the 2X site as an example of their ‘thin clients’.

I have something similar on my Asus motherboard where I don’t have to boot into Windows, they call it’s Instant-On Linux, or Splashtop, from it I can check email, browse the web etc in a few seconds of turning my computer on. Read on to see the press release and how you can get it..
