I've had my Icon for just short of 2 weeks now, and I have grown extremely find of the phone and the Windows 8 platform. I know several people who are using different Android phones (Samsung, HTC, Motorola) all running slightly different versions of jellybean, kitkat and some still on Ice cream sandwich.
Throughout the time that I've had the Icon I have been showing it off to these Android users. Most of them were pressured into "upgrading" to another Android phone, and basically thinking the only other option was the iPhone's. Almost all whom have showed (and let them play with) my phone they have also enjoyed the experience, and they are looking into switching to the Windows platform.
I'm basically just wondering if others are doing the same. I know that most VZW store reps are not showing the Windows phones as a viable choice, and I just want to know if the word of mouth from other Windows users is helping, or showing others that there really is another option and encouraging others to switch or think about switching.
I have helped 7 people to switch to the the Nokia's, or the HTC 8X...
