    AT&T Offers Nokia Lumia 925 For $99.99 Sept. 13, Pre-orders Aug. 28

    $430 off contract seems really great - very tempted but I don't need it ...

    They finally arrived here's some pics

    How well do you think it would protect against a drop - corners and face seem to be the most vulnerable - and it looks like the case has those covered. Looks like a good design, but looks can always be deceiving ...

    928 vs. 8x

    I think the 8X is being cleared out - that's not to say that the 928 is going to be a flagship a year from now, because it won't be, but either will the GS4. I think if the price is the same, the 928 is the clearly better phone, aside from size. The Nokia apps and support as well as 32GB push it...

    Wow!! This camera is.......bad

    It's funny - I inherited an iphone4 some time ago and someone had put a screen protector on the back. It took TERRIBLE photos until I realized that the screen protector was over the lens. I felt like an ***** after I realized.

    Considering Switching from Android

    Podcast support is fine, but not amazing. In saying that, it's only just gotten decent on the iPhone in the last 6 months. There are several third-party apps that each have their own strengths. Cloud Pod is my favorite so far, but I am sure other people feel differently.

    Will Verizon or Nokia really back this device?

    Great minds :) Nokia do things a little differently as well. I think they know that some big press event in NYC costs a lot and really only buys them the same amount of coverage they got anyway. I am hoping they have SOMETHING up their sleeve, because right now my perception is that the...

    Will Verizon or Nokia really back this device?

    When the Blackberry Q10 is getting a small front-page spot on Verizon and T-MO and the Lumia's are not - that's a concern. It's possible they are not going to start promoting until launch, let's hope so.

    Camera still images look great, but video not so much?

    I think some of it is because it was on that gyrocopter.

    Just ordered the 928 as a concession phone

    Re: Just Got the 928 as a concession phone I guess there is no point cranking up the advertising until launch - so hopefully it's coming. Sounds like a big push internally - hopefully this is the turning point for WP8.

    Just ordered the 928 as a concession phone

    Re: Just Got the 928 as a concession phone @honestabebread - Is this going to be a real hero phone for Verizon? Or is it just going to get lost in the mix?

    Just ordered the 928 as a concession phone

    Re: Just Got the 928 as a concession phone Is this a big deal that they allow this as a concession phone or do they let you have anything? Are they encouraging reps to get one of these?

    Anyone going to use the 521 as a media device only?

    I have a sim in it, but the sim is not activated - I do wonder whether the SIM will expire

    Anyone going to use the 521 as a media device only?

    This is part of my goal for my 521 - also want to use it for GPS. So far I have not been overly impressed with podcast functionality, but Audible works fine. I'll have to see. I really need a good podcasting app for it to work for me.
