ill keep that in mind ofc, just need to go play with a few phones and see. put this off until tomorrow though.
tbh i want to play around with windows 8 just for comparison purposes. whats your thoughts on the htc 8x? is that your best w8 phone?

edit:
if i were to use that phone would i lose my 2 year upgrade deal when i went to buy next time?

do you have some anecdotal evidence? a personal situation where one was difficult to use or problematic? or is your opinion of window phones similar to my opinion of ios?

windows phone is supposed to be a medium between android and ios
slightly more robust than ios, slightly less complicated than android
its a decent phone but personally i dont think microsoft will ever have a competitive market share in mobile

also, your 2 year upgrade only resets if you use it to buy a phone at subsidized price with contract renewal
