What attracted me to this forum was the absence of personal attacks and the flame wars that are on other boards. I'm sorry to see that changing here, I like to think of us being able to intelligently disagree on various subjects.
As far as apps. They do matter to many people. Windows have come a long way in two years but we have yet to attract the business apps that both ios and adroid has.
We have a few, I use Fly Delta, Priority Club Rewards and Avis and I enjoy using them.
But to be honest there are many that I wish I did have: GM has an app that monitors status of your car as well as remote start or lock/unlock it....but not for WP, I have Comcast and their app allows you to remote schedule your DVR and even monitor or secutiry set up is you have on....but not for WP, I would love to be able to watch HBO Go when I travel but I can't with my phone and yes, my credit union has an app that allows you to monitor your account and yes even do some banking from it but they don't have an app for windows phone.
Facts are facts, currently this is a shortcomming. I love my phone and I have decided to stay with it in hopes that in time these companies will wake up and develope apps for our OS but we all have different priorities and for some that's enough to go elsewhere.
We shouldn't be attacking people for criticizing the lack of what they find important. These smart phones are suppose to help make our lives a little easier.
