I don't see how it's dropping the ball. First, this phone has been in the pipeline since Nokia, so it's not a Microsoft failure.
The mighty MS forced to release Nokia's left over table scraps. It does make for a convenient scapegoat though if the phone tanks. "Nokia did it!"
Furthermore, Nokia has had extremely attractive and unique handsets since they introduced the Lumia line, but it hasn't particularly helped them in the marketplace. Having standout handset designs isn't as important to sell phones as some on here seem to think.
True. Apps, developer support and marketing are bigger factors. That being said that's no excuse to put out an uninspired device.
