I recently purchased a Windows Phone. It's a 3G HTC Trophy, so the blazing speed of the new iPhone 4GS eludes me, but so does the obnoxious size/shape, fanboy culture, and honestly not-all-it's-cracked-up-to-be iPhone user interface. I'm really enjoying it. First Windows product that I've met which is genuinely user-friendly.

lol for years I've seen neckbeards claim that stuff like registry is good because it allows for deep customization. Windows becoming more OS X like is only making it more comprehendible to the ever increasing base of casual users.

The Windows phone I used is quite nice, but I didn't like the scrolling down through items too much on the home screen. That said my phone cost £10 and is terrible to use so I'd swap it for any other phone if I could.

iPhone 4S is 3G, so you're not missing out Saydra :)

If you like your Windows phone now, by all accounts you are going to LOVE the next iteration of their operating system, Metro. It's gotten nothing but rave reviews from those who have reviewed it.
