We all know about Microsoft’s strict hardware requirements for devices looking to run WP7S. Today Engadget posted video of the HTC Diamond running WP7S. Now when I say running, I mean that it was actually doing so through a remote desktop client and not actually a port of the OS. After seeing the video I think its obvious why Microsoft pushes high-end hardware so hard. This technically doesn’t reliably indicate how WP7S would actually run on the HTC Diamond but I can’t imagine the performance would be any better. Go ahead and take a gander at the video below if you can handle the laggy suspense.
