Is anyone else waiting for MWC to see if they should stay with Wp8? I'm hoping for a lot of concrete announcements of improvements and acknowledgements of broken promises.

I love a lot about my 920, but if Microsoft refuses to acknowledge that they have failed to deliver on a lot of promises, someone will be getting a good deal on a white 920 in march.

Am I alone on wanting answers to these Questions?

1. When will they fix Skype
2. When will they fix the Music Situation? -The current situation is embarrassing, I can't even edit the order of a playlist.
3. When will the "3 Screen solution" actually come true.
4. Will I ever be able to buy and watch a video on my phone?
5. Will the other mobile OS's continue to receive Microsoft related updates before WP8?
 
Add the app situation. We need concrete development on what Belfiore and company promised us back in October.

This is basically the decision moment for me as well. My job will give me a free iPhone 5 to use for work email, or I can stick with my Lumia 920 and hook up to email using my personal cell phone. If MSFT disappoints, I'm unfortunately going to go back to iOS.

Considering the reason I initially switched to WP8 (iTunes) is now a better piece of software than Xbox Music, it actually makes more sense for me to switch back.
 
I'm not counting MWC as D-Day especially since Microsoft isn't even formally there, but they need to deliver soon. Else, I see no point in sticking with the platform while Google has functionality nailed down on Android and is actively cleaning up the UX issues.
 
How about the lack of an iMovie app? It's downright embarrassing when an iPhone person can flaunt that app in my face and I have no answer but to run away with tail tucked firmly between legs.

Why would we have an Apple app on a Windows Phone? how long did it take Apple to have that app also?
 
I'm looking forward to new hardware. Many of the things you list aren't a problem for me.
 
I guess the it's different for everyone, but what's worse then what's missing/needs to be fixed is Microsoft's stance that you should have blind faith that they will eventually do the right thing, vs acknowledging an issue exists. Except for the beta tag on Skype, they haven't admitted anything is lacking in performance. For all I know they could be quite happy with the way everything else is working and have no intentions on updating anything.
 
I'm giving them a while, but I want to see a few things over the next several months. I want them to say what Applo+ or whatever it is called will bring to the table and I hope they do it around MWC. In April it sounds like they will be having an event for the next XBox. I hope to see some more WP stuff there as well.

I'd also like to see a new Zune type app come out soon because the music situation is really horrible. I'm still using old school Zune devices to plug into my Ford Sync because there is no solution worth 2 craps for syncing music onto my phone.
