Amen, socialcarpet... this made me genuinely laugh out loud.
I have no problems on getting 7.8 to my Arrive. I fully understand that my phone can't support most of what WP8 has to offer. I can understand the ire of Lumia owners and sympathize with them as well (my girlfriend is a Lumia 900 owner, but she understands the situation as well).
There is still a while to go before 7.8/8 is released for general consumption and I think there is more to come than we know. After all, last week's reveal was mainly for developers, so we shouldn't go bonkers just yet.
