Re: Windows phone
Without wanting to start BoD frothing at the mouth, I'm seeing a big shift in former iOS junkies towards Android. I'm not seeing the same shift of te original wise ones who started on Android moving to Windows phone.

Re: Windows phone
I have to say prior to win8, wouldn't think of a windows phone, looking at the Nokias for like 279, works for me. Can get work mail, office, interface is good, easy to navigate and 279 bucks with no contracts. It also has some rather good maps and can do GPS for cars offline....
Android is ok, but find it limited

Re: Windows phone
I'm struggling to understand how someone who finds Android limited would find windows phone not.

Re: Windows phone
At work we're barred from using Windows phones because they can not securely connect with Microsoft Exchange. There are applications for both iOS and Android which allow this, just not Windows. Seems kinda strange to me....

Basically they are phones... Not real tools... I quite like the windows interface now, but will see what the blue update offers...

Re: Windows phone
Far from it. Given the processing and memory power available on current devices, labelling them as "phones" is pretty short sighted. They are mobile computers!! Making phone calls and sending text messages is one of their basic functions. But they can do a hell of a lot more.
Re: Windows phone
and so in being so, the windows phone makes more sense as it syncs with my windows desktop.
Re: Windows phone
Whereas my android phone syncs with the cloud!

Clouds are best left for weather systems as far as I am concerned.

Re: Windows phone
Same for me. After some initial set up pains it works really well and everything syncs up properly. Easy to use, top quality screen, robust and an amazing camera.

Re: Windows phone
Love it.
The only thing I miss is BlackBerry's unified Inbox. Other than that I'm very very happy with the change.

Re: Windows phone
same here: we can only use IOS for work related stuff. having said that: it is quite easy to set up the email client to receive work related email on the S3. as long as you have the password that logs you onto the network...
Re: Windows phone
Bet windows phone would work
