If Apple had offered a phone with a hardware keyboard, I'd have bought it. The lack of that choice was the catalyst for me going with WP7 (I was previously WM6.5 with a Tilt 2 like Michael). I have the LG Quantum and have been very pleased with it.

I have to say I've been giving serious thought to a Windows mobile. RIM appear to be dying on their feet (much as though my Blackberry is perfectly adequate, currently), and I just can't get away with an IPhone. It's the whole "walled garden" thing that doesn't sit with me, plus the fact I find the touch keyboard a real pain to use. My wife has one and I hate using it. Given that Android is pretty similar, that leaves me with only the WinMo to consider. Seeing as though I've been using MS kit since about 1991, hopefully it should feel pretty familiar to me. So nice to see someone giving it a thumbs-up. On 11 October 2011 15:52, John Hornbuckle <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Wait for what, though? It was a solid platform out of the gate (I've had a WP7 phone for nearly a year). With the Mango update that just came out, some rough edges were polished and the platform really shines. There's nothing I want to be able to do with my WP7 phone that I can't do-although obviously everyone has differing needs. WP7 gives choice (like Android) without fragmentation (like iPhone). It's the best of both worlds.
