windows phone 7 on eXpo??

I understand that the expo was suppose to be released with win phone 7 on it and that the snapdragon processor will support the new os.  Will there be an upgrade or rom available for download soon?  

wells that blows, hope someone can hacks it.  Whats the difference with touch screens?

Yes, as WR said, Our phone screens use a cheaper alternative called "Resistive touch" where as multitouch phones tend to use "capacitive touch"

Q : Will my eXpo be able to be upgraded to WP7 ? If so how , when , or where do i find the upgrade? If not what are the requirements to run WP7 that the eXpo does not have?

A : Unfortunately No, the eXpo and all other current Win 6.5 phones will not be upgradable to Win Mobile 7.  Below is a list of requirements with WP7 devices.

•  * Capacitive touchscreen with four or more contact points
•  * Two possible screen sizes and resolutions - 4.3 inch (800x480) and 3.4 inch (480x320)
•  * Sensors: A-GPS, Accelerometer, Compass, Light, Proximity
•  * Camera that is 5 megapixels or more, flash required and dedicated camera button required
•  * Three dedicated hardware buttons - Start, Search, and Back
•  * Memory: 256MB RAM or more with 8GB flash or more
•  * GPU: DirectX 9 acceleration
•  * CPU: 1GHz ARMv7 Cortex/Scorpion or better
The eXpo is an awesome Win 6.5 phone with great specs,  but it doesn't meet all of the requirements to handle the new OS...  Why?

•Doesn't have the right Button configuration
•Capacitive touchscreen with four or more contact points (The eXpo is resistive)
•Memory: 256MB RAM
•GPU: DirectX 9 acceleration
I think these are the requirements that the eXpo doesn't have.  It's really too bad that such good hardware won't be able to be upgraded to the new Windows...
