Heres a good article from an iPhone user who spent 30 days with a WP8 phone. Plenty of positive feedback.

I guess phone makers have learnt very well from carmakers, no point in giving too much quality and reliability because that means the consumer will be happy with what they have for too long and they won't be coming back for more in a hurry.

And what do you know: The Motorola StarTAC is Back, in Yellow
I mainly use phones just to talk. I hate texting. I don't do the social network thing. I (only) check emails in the office, at home or when I get back to the hotel. And while it would be helpful to have a feature phone, I've managed to do OK without that for so long, I just don't see the cost/benefit. To be honest, if every facility I have to visit for this new company had ready, easy WiFi access, I'd just stick with Ol' Sparky and use the iPod Touch to access other data. An additional $60/month to have something that I won't use that much!

Henners' link shows wp8 really well. It's a good is, perhaps not for people who want zillions of apps, but they work just fine and the interface is fantastic If people give wp8 a chance, most will like it
Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

Mobile phones & tablets thread
Yeah I posted it because it showed WP8 from a positive perspective. Trying to give a bit of balance plus it addressed the issue of apps quite well.

They don't look so smug when I replace like for like, I can tell you.
We've got one chap, a right PITA, he wants a Z10, and does not realise I'd have to purchase Server 2008 or 2012, then run two versions of BES, just cos he wants a new toy. (And no, I wont use Activesync as then I open a real BYOD nightmare)Opinions are like ar5eholes, everyone has one.

Did Jan Solans get 3 points for his 8th place at the end of saturday? Wikipedia and WRC site shows he didn't, eWRC shows he did.
