8. Where are my outlook notes?
They're in Outlook, unsynced. Move them to OneNote and they'll sync.

I see people doing exchanges for things that quite possibly are software related very often. The word Placebo comes to mind. Some actual hardware issues exist, I don't deny it. But some software issues also exist and will eventually disappear if the user either identifies the buggy app causing issues, waits for the next OS rev, or learns how background processing works.Well there must be more very unlucky people around other than me...

It sometimes pays to keep an open mind and not use sarcasm as a form of defence.
Sometimes the problem really does exist between the keyboard and the chair.

Yep, each individual should indeed make that determination. However, as you can clearly see from the numerous posts here, many people find it to be more than business ready, and many people don't need to factory reset constantly or exchange multiple times. I for one could not see running my business on Android, and I love android - fabulous hacking platform. iOS works if you fit in the app silos, too.That's all well and good and I actually agree, but I really didn't sign up to he a beta tester. I was under the impression this had already been done (a little tongue in cheek) but honestly. I as a business user can't afford to having keep factory resetting my phone especially as the restore function didn't, well. Function. There comes a point where you have to say, this hardware,software combination just isn't at a point the business needs it to be.

The problem I have, lets say 10 emails are in my inbox, I look at the first one and reply to it. When I back out of the inbox, the tile doesn't show that i have 9 unread emails, it shows i have 0. This has to be wrong.. surely it should still say I have 9 unread ones.. a business needs this type of input.
Hey, so, just now I noticed this. So I retract my earlier comment. I had two emails, read one, went back to the start screen, the notification disappeared. I guess I never noticed it because I generally read all my email when it comes in (or at least quickly scan it for any immediate follow-up requirement). So yeah, an issue... a minor issue for my part, but an issue nonetheless.
And AGAIN I will point out that the VAST MAJORITY of users DO NOT need to reset or restore their devices even once. Like me. A business user.YIf your business needs dictate you need to reset and restore your device multiple times, maybe WP isn't "business ready" for you.

I'll post this reminder for you every time you make that blanket statement.
This is considered a "feature" and one that I like. On my iPhone, I used to hate remembering if i had 60 or 61 emails the last time I checked. There are plenty of messages (either spam type) or from people I know it is not important that I leave for later. So I leave them unread until I get back to my computer or when I have more time. The reset allows me to see when I need to see what is new.
This is a good point. Like I said... or at least insinuated... I hadn't even noticed it worked that way, so it's obviously not a problem for me.
"Your backup and restore issues are linked to the problems you have had and the fact that you managed to get the 920 working on O2, not an actual design problem with the phone."
Are you 100% sure this is my problem? Why couldn't the software developer think a little out of the box and write a small piece of code that allowed you to restore backups? It's not hard..
LOL, you really are a manager. LOL.
Actually I'm not. I started and built a multi million pound international business. I've spent shed loads on installing bespoke software. I do know what it takes to plan and write good code.

But you've never architected or written good code. You rely on your experts to do that. But that's okay. Since you are obviously on the WP8 team and are intimate with it's architecture and code base, you know it's a piece of cake. That's all I'm saying. Unless you're on that team, then you don't know **** on how easy or hard it would be. For all we know, it may have not even have been a requirement.
EDIT: That's all I'm pointing out. I do think some of your grips are valid concerns (to stay on topic). Just your statement about it being "just a few lines of easy code" is stupid.
Hi all..
1. Exchange sync doesn't sync correctly. When emails are deleted on the phone they don't sync until you physically press SYNC.. this just isn't acceptable as a business tool, regardless what MS tell us, ALL other platforms sync on deletion of emails which means all accounts are up to date. I've lost count the number of times i've deleted emails on my handset only to find they are still in my inbox when i open outlook. Doubling workload isn't a great way to encourage business to adopt this ecosystem.
