I have the Lumia 920. It's awesome. They are selling very well too with many places being sold out. It was ATT's third best selling phone last month only being beaten by the iPhone and SIII. If Nokia and MS can keep up the momentum, they'll carve out a profitable chunk of the smartphone market. I don't need a ton of apps on my phone, I only use it for surfing the internet, texting, and taking pictures, so the camera was huge for me. The camera on the Lumia 920 is far superior than any other smartphone on the market, especially in low light conditions. Only downside IMO is that the phone is a bit heavy.

Just curious... why would you want a Windows phone over one with an Android OS?

Because android is notorious for locking up and having terrible battery life?

It's a fragmented operating system, which can cause a lot of problems with apps across different phones.

Of the three smart phone platforms, and I've used them all extensively, android is the worst one I've used.

The friends I went to KC with are Microsoft guys and one of them had a Windows 8 phone and a Surface. He took 20 minutes to show me how they worked with the MS cloud service and I came away extremely impressed.

I don't know what type of phone it was but I'd imagine I'd want a faster newer version to handle all the cool stuff if can do in style.

I have a blackberry because my company pays for it, but I hear thats going away soon - if so I will have some thinking to do, my wife has an iPhone so it would be nice to have the same thing, but that Windows phone is really freaking great.

I like iOS but I also like things like an SD card, nonproprietary charging cables and qwerty keypads. I'm used to it now, but learning to text on a touchscreen was very bothersome.

I've never used a windows phone, but I don't like clutter. To me, windows 8 and windows phones look like complete clutter.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
