Which website are you trying to view that does not get rendered as expected on IE10? Which CSS/HTML feature you expected that is lacking?

I see a lot of such unqualified general opinions here on HN that rant against a particular product/technology without any specificity. It will genuinely help to give a speciic and concrete feedback otherwise its just noise.



what' he's referring to, in my experience is the fact that microsoft has been trumpeting IE and HTML5 for some time (particularly on windows 7 phone). And that except for the hd7s and samsung focus, windows 7 phones are stuck with ie 7 mobile, which has no HTML5 support. From what I can tell other windows 7 phones cannot run the 7.5 "mango" release, which actually includes an HTML5 capable IE browser.


All of the WP7 devices will be able to run Mango. Mango hasn't been released yet for existing phones, but speculation is that it will happen on Sept 23rd. Although I don't know what the roll out will look like.


To be honest it's fairly obvious now why they were doing that, to pave the way for Win 8's HTML5 driven UI. But I guess they just had to ship the phone OS before they could get it ready.
