I was very excited about it when it was announced in June, but then I kind of forgot about it. I said back then I would wait until the WP8 devices came out to get a smartphone, so here I am full-circle. Although I have strongly considered iOS and Android since then.
I've been stuck on the middle on what smartphone OS to get. I need transit directions, and I know third-party apps are good with Apple Maps, and Google obviously knows what they are doing.
I'm thinking about pre-ordering the Nokia Lumia 822 tomorrow, I'm on Verizon. You can only get the Nokia apps, such as Transport, on a Nokia phone? Does anyone have experience with Nokia Maps? Their transit apps looks really awesome and simple.
Windows Phone 8 + Nokia looks really appealing to me, so I'm leaning towards doing that. Would I be making a mistake by choosing this OS? Everything looks great from the OS/start screen to things like Nokia Transport, assuming it's as good as it looks.
