I'm very happy with the verizon rollout of windows 8.1 and I find the form and usability of the lumia 822 to be just about ideal. I've seen elsewhere that microsoft is planning additional phones post windows 10 and I'm wondering what speculation or rumors might be out there about a possible successor to the lumia 822. One of my concerns is that everyone seems to think bigger is better; I find with my surface and desktop, I don't need to do fancy word processing on my phone, but I do need it for everyday tasks (email etc). I'm willing to tolerate a little larger size, but all of this is dependent on Verizon as well. It was disturbing to see Verizon drop the Icon without any announcement about why, and thus the relationship between verizon and MS seems problematic.
