I am rocking a 900. Unfortunately, my upgrade isn't due until April 2014 so I will keep using this device till then. while WP8 is nice and the speed bump is clearly noticeable, WP7.8 fits my need and as of now, has a more mature underpinning that WP8. Plus the radio.

I thought the same. But one day, my roommates L800 wouldn't boot up. We tried the power button, plugging into the charger etc. Nothing worked. We took it to the Microsoft store and they pressed the vol up + vol down + power button and the phone booted up perfectly. The guy said, that's the key...

Re: is this true? The thing is, there is *no* fragmentation. All phones run the same OS. This is not the case with android. Using "fragmentation" for WP is like saying fragmentation for desktop Windows. OEMs bundle exclusive apps, high-end games don't run on netbooks, some PCs have USB 3.0 and...

Re: is this true? I don't think you even understand what the word "fragmentation" means. You're just throwing it around like the others on this forum when they don't get what they want viz. Nokia exclusive apps, hero phone, micro SD, wireless charging, games. All these objects have been the...
