Greetings from the Crackberry nation. I am a long time BlackBerry user and a mobile app developer. So while I wait for my new Limited Edition Blackberry Z10 to arrive (a gift from BlackBerry for having a BB10 app at launch) I dug through my drawer of phones and stumbled upon a new Lumia 810 which was collecting dust. Anyway I am now on day 3 and overall I am impressed. The OS is very snappy. The Nokia apps are fantast ic in particular Nokia Drive. The app selection isn't amazing but as a BB user I am used to that. Definitely nice to have Skype which is something we are still waiting for on the new BB10 platform (its been announced, just not yet released). Spotify too is missing on BB10 and it's great to have it on WP8. As a heavy email/calendar user I am not enamored with the email and calendar implementation but it's certainly adequate.
I do have a question though and it relates to the Back button. It doesn't seem to behave the way I expect it to. For example, in the browser the back button will take me to the previous Page but sometimes it will take me out to the home screen. Am I doing something wrong? Likewise in Spotify, I will navigate to a playlist and hit a song to play. Once the song I'd playing how do I get back to the playlist. I am sure it's just my inexperience with the platform.
Anyway, I am glad to be a WP user even though it's only for a short while.
