Phones running Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 might be available in Europe almost three weeks before the new smartphone platform lands on American store shelves. France, Germany, the U.K., and Spain will reportedly start selling Windows Phone 7 devices on October 21, the blog Neowin reports based on discussions with anonymous sources. Meanwhile, Windows-focused blogger and author Paul Thurrott reports that a "very reliable source" says Windows Phone 7 arrives in the U.S. on November 8. While Microsoft hasn't made any official Windows Phone 7 announcments, both the Neowin and Thurrott reports appear to support each other. Neowin says it was unable to confirm whether U.S. customers would get their hands on Windows Phone 7 devices the same day as Europe.
