LOl @ that, not sure why they're trying to get into the whole cellphone business, leave that to Apple I say, didn't work for the Zune either (-__-)

And I suppose it's not working when they tried to replace google with Bing either.

what exactly makes this epic fail?

^I agree with "epic fail" anyway. Nobody is gonna go for sub-par phones like these when there are much more worthwhile devices around.

Remember guys, this is a "social phone" not a smartphone.

The target is for kids/teens only. o3o

Typical microsoft style ... To make things cluttered

I think it could work, marketed correctly.  That is, if sold at a low price, and parents usually being the ones actually paying for these things.
Although teens are increasingly becoming aware of technology and how it works etc, I still think there's heaps of people out there who ultimately don't care about downloading apps and the likes.  If the device does everything they want to do, it could work to some extent.

But that's my guess and I'm not familiar with this field anyway >_>

Microsoft sure can marketed they can throw money at it and people will buy it.
