In my eyes there is no reason why microsoft isn't pulling as much marketshare as android (and I still contend android is crap and quite comparable to the dated code of windows phone 6.5 and that's sad), and it would be pulling said share if it was marketed properly. The droid does commercials, why didn't microsoft think of that?
M$ is not aiming for Android, they are aiming at Apple...I do not think WP7 will take much of Androids market share as the user base is different..that said WP7 is gonna have a big fight on their hands mostly if the rumor is true about the iphone on all carriers.

Also, Android code is in no way dated...most issues with Android are attributed to battery and ram..if we got some upgraded tech that would even double the battery storage and double the ram it would be a beast of its own. While I do support setting minimum hardware requirements I do not see limited and strict OS is the future...as proof..even the iphone year by year is opening up more and more..
