Microsoft is preparing to unveil its Windows Phone 7 operating system at a press event in New York City this morning, but already details are leaking about the phones themselves.
LG's U.K. office apparently leaked an announcement about its upcoming Windows Phone 7 handset, the Optimus 7. An announcement of the phone was released early and then 
withdrawn, but not before bloggers at Slashgear were able to get the details on the phone. The Optimus 7 features a 3.8-inch WVGA touch-screen, a 5-megapixel camera, and 16GB of memory.
Engadget, meanwhile, is reporting that Microsoft leaked a bit of Windows Phone 7 info early, too. Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 site apparently was running an ad that noted that Windows Phone 7 devices were "coming November 8." The software giant has not confirmed a launch date for its new mobile platform, though a November 8 launch has been rumored.
