First link is all predictions.

Second link is from 2011.
So it doesn't say anything useful to us today.

Third link just says excedded expectations. What does that mean?
Could just mean they sold more than they thought.

Nothing proves the claims that two of the top three are wp.

Radar 4g was #3 in nov2011 - dec 2011, as of latest results which I am guessing are jan/feb Radar 4g dropped and now Lumia is #3.

didn't read more closely at it. Here

As of today, the Lumia 710 is T-Mobile's third best selling device--a level we have never seen reached for any Windows Phone in the US. Likewise, the device is in the same spot for user satisfaction with a 4.7 stars (out of 5) from 115 reviews (interestingly, the HTC Radar is number two).

You mean the user satisfaction rating? personally I wouldn't trust those too much. Simply because unlike say sprint which requires you to actually be a sprint member to write a review for some reason T-mobile allows anyone with with an email regardless of whether you own the phone or not to vote. Not saying that its wrong, just saying that the numbers can easily be manipulated.

I'd believe it, but sadly the tmobile stores (3 of them near me) had no windows phone to demo :S I got to see it at a ATT store when I checked out the note :S

Can't say that I'm not impressed with it, but I also can't say I'd want one (I'm not into social media so a "connected" phone isn't for me so much as a "tinkering" phone) I can't say that windows phone isn't good to mess with, but I don't have one and well, can't really sit down and tinker with it while the store rep is standing next to you...

I mean the sales, the article I quoted mentions both sales and ratings.

Here's another:

T-mobile doesn't have any demo units out, you have to ask a rep to see one.

I don't see how WP7 could have destroyed a platform that was already obsolete. WM6.x had like 1% marketshare if that, I bet WP7 has already overtaken it. MS knew this was a 5 year plan. How many G1s sold when Android first came out, it was a joke. Android? what the hell was that? an ugly keyboard phone that was slow and buggy and was nothing compared to the iphone....

I am like REALLY excited about Windows 8, think about it, it will be across all platforms, ARM versions WP8, man it looks really cool. And WP7 is really sleek. I prefer Android, but WP7 is lightyears better than WM6.x, and I was a flashing junkie! I loved cooking ROMs on my diamond, but it cannot be denied how un-user-friendly WM was.

It will also raise the bar for Jellybean and Key Lime Pie as well iOS6 and 7 because they know that MS is not going away.
