This phone can't just be as good as an Android or iPhone for existing users. They need a good reason to go through the pain of moving to a new phone.
Microsoft has the advertising muscle but we have the megaphone and are the troops on the ground that can show off the phones attributes. If this phone fails in the marketplace then we can blame Microsoft and maybe the retail stores. Last but not least we can blame ourselves as early adapters of electronic devices. We have to take ownership and do our job showing off this phone.

Man get out of here with this nonsense. WP7 is barely even selling regardless of all that money Microsoft spent on advertising. Developers arent putting much faith in the OS at all due to terrible sales. No one is going to leave IOS or Android for WP7 because at this point its going in reverse. I told yall weeks ago WP7 will always be behind Android, IOS and RIM. Why? Because Microsoft sucks in the mobile market.
And now with IOS moving over to Verizon as well as them getting the Bionic and the Thunderbolt and AT&T picking up Android superphones this year like the Atrix, dont expect it to be much better. Its pretty much like I kept telling people, Microsoft made this move too little and most definitely too late.
