...and it's been out how many months....? I guess android flew off the shelves...

WP7 released in 30 countries with nine "different" devices and 60 carriers One of those carriers being the largest in US....ATT . Android released on one carrier(I believe) and that carrier happens to be the smallest of the big four....TMobile. Also Android was released on one device.

I'm not saying that it won't work. I'm saying that it's not working right now. If carriers won't advertise your product then they should market it themselves. Also it's not like Microsoft is the only company with billions being made quarterly. Apple (Ios), Google (Android), RIM (blackberry) and even HP (webOS) all have more than enough money to make their respective OS' "work" as you say. I just finished reading a couple articles. One mentioned how Tmobile employees are pushing Android devices to customers. The article I read was about ATT being the largest carrier in this country now. Guess what their depending on to keep them ahead of Verizon? Yup you guessed it, Android. WP just isn't visible right now. It had more hype before launch than it does now. I'm not trying to be all negative because I was in the same position wp7 fans are with webos. I'm hoping HP has something great in store for me and my love affair with webos. At least lately HP has been gaining hype about the future of webos. I want microsoft to do the same thing. They paid app developers for the important apps. Now they should hold maybe a youtube competition. Have a contest to see who could come up with the best slogan and commercial displaying the benefits of having wp7 device. Let the winner receive cash and a wp7 device of their choice or something.
