That's it peeps, 8 phones to rule them all. Nothing more, nothing less.

8 phones are not needed.

Make a good line up of 5-6 phones with competitive specs. Get rid of the confusing number system. Make the phones worldwide. Price them aggressively. Market the things properly. Get developers on board.

Having too many phones and having the issues with carrier specifics has been part of the issue. I don't want to see MS continue the Nokia model. It doesn't work.

8 phones can work well if they're done well.
Keep the logical number system. Keep carrier exclusives to a minimum, both with carrier variants and just exclusive standard models.

Honestly, its not as simple as "just do x, y, z and watch the money flow in!"
Reality can strike, etc. Changing the 630's design probably isn't going to affect it majorly. I personally like the design.

Anyone can put together a wishlist, but execution... kinda hard.
