Microsoft drops ‘Series’ from Windows Phone 7

Scream loudly enough and eventually they’ll listen. Well, Microsoft listened anyway.

Responding to all the feedback (read: criticism) about the Windows Phone 7 Series name, the company revealed Friday that it’s dropping “Series” from the nomenclature, and the new mobile operating system will simply be called Windows Phone 7 from now on.

Here’s Microsoft’s official statement on the matter:

Customers want a simpler way to say and use the name consistently. The important thing is keeping the focus on the Windows Phone brand, which we introduced in October and will continue investing in through Windows Phone 7 and beyond.

Smart move, Microsoft. Smart move.
