Haha. Those commercials are pretty awesome. These are the best WP7 commercials I've seen to date, no doubt. I like the humorous different take with their advertising.

Its cause Adobe's app devs did a half-wit job.

If only it wasn't an AT&T exclusive, I'm not switching over to a crappy more expensive network for any phone.

I have an iPhone 4S. They all have their problems. Some programs still "Lockup" or "Force Quit" every once and awhile. It has to do more with the program than the phone though. As for the phone operation, it's smooth. I have to say that.

I pretty happy that we now have a full fledged Windows phone OS, Android and iOS. The more competition the better.

I agree. More competition = customers win.

I'm not sure about that. The lagness only occurs with heavy PDFs. Light documents display just fine at good speed but the heavy ones take around 5 seconds to even display page yet alone scrolling or etc. This would be easily rectified with a Krait which if rumors are true should power the next gen of Windows phones. There are some things no matter the efficiency of an OS ultimately depends on it's hardware performance.

Hahaha love this ad campaign!

Plus I agree with the more competition comments. I'm tired of the 2 heavy hitters just exchanging blows back and forth.

I really like the 7.5 Mango OS but i really wish there were more apps. I do really miss my play market's account and my Amazon appstore, i have tons of apps/games there.

Finally, an open minded post with no bashing.

100% agreed.
