zune software? (Music players on my TP2 are frustrating at best)
FM radio?(I know... Some GSM devices already have it... I don't)
Xbox interaction?
Pandora? (The real version with quality sound/looks not the crap I'm running now)
Netflix?
I heart radio?

And I'm sure I'm missing many others... But I hate having a phone that gets no love from app makers... You always hear the commercials about how an app is available for iphone and android or iphone and blackberry or some other combination that omits winmo.
To me... Just the things I mentioned above are upgrades... MS has promised copy/paste The contacts list should also be fixed and the Outlook interface too... But I'm sure they have some sync tool for hotmail and the cloud based outlook which I use with my TP2 as it takes advantage of exchange. You see... I don't really mod my phones... I still have the stock ROM... I like customizing the main screen with cabs. And I'm sure with time... I'll have some options. I just want a phone that works and that gives me alot of options and that interacts with the software/devices I use. MS office, exchange, facebook, tweeter, you follow...
Customization is on the list... Just not a priority.

I tether... Just not that much... I have a 16gb card in my phone... It's filled with crap I never even use. And still not full. The cloud offers up some good storage options.

The 7 pro is but the first offering from Spirnt... I'm sure they'll offer up a keyboardless phone too, they've got to (not sure what this rumored LG phone looks like). But only time will tell.

And thats why I want a WP7

p.
exactly my point, if the only "new" deice your rockling is a tp2 then hell yes sprints wp7 is a nice upgrade but (heres my case) if your on a epic/evo then the first sprint wp7 phone is like going backwards. no dought i will in time have a wp7 device soon as sprint gets something other than pro7 and meets specs im on now. (epic) thanx az
