android-customization
RIM-security
IOS-apps market
windows phone-user interface and speed
i think so wp 8 will be a blast,but that doesnt mean android will sink.android will continue growing due to its customization.rim phones are used mostly by enterprise people due to its security stuff. ios is famous for its simplicity and apps.i want wp to beat all the three os in security,apps and customization.
