That would be awesome but we all know its a fantasy. have you ever seen Nokia N10 rumors? tri-boot with windows 7 or 8, Android 4.0 and Meego...
i think dual-booting phones are still a few years away.

What about Mobile Hotspot? When I spoke with a Tmobile rep last week and was considering a Lumia to replace my Sensation, I was told that Mobile Hotspot was not supported.

Finally, but when do we start getting WP8 phones and also what about legacy devices?Other than that all complaints I had against WP are now non-existent.

Rumor has it that September range for new devices, although that could be when WP8 will be released to manufacturers. Then October/November would be more likely.
Microsoft will support legacy devices, but in what manner is yet to be seen. I am done guessing. But, I am sure 1st and 2nd Gen devices will see support.

Wow, dualcore, 720p and some 100K apps for high-end devices.
I think MS will have a winner ;)

I just can't wait for a Lumia and a S III of Windows Phone 8, both devices will be amazing!

I think it's more realistic to hope there will be a Galaxy Note with WP8 at first because of the dualcore.
Perhaps in a year there could be a S IV with quadcore,1080p running WP8

This good news. For a working person who uses a pc, having a MS Surface along with (or just) a high end Windows phone would make life oh so easy. Compatibility is everything.

it is and we sometimes take that for granted as its only in limited form these days.

if Windows Phone 8 helps to pick up more App Support then there's a good chance i'll switch.

Current Hardware will get windows phone 7.8 which will look same as wp8

Its not dual cores but it can support upto 64 cores.

Good for windows phone. They really need to give it there best, because now that android has achieved HD screens far superior from anything out there, and has finally (FINALLY) attained the fluidity of ios and Windows phone its really going to be a tough market for them to grow, somehow they have to find a space, between some very tough competiition between, the SGS3, the One x, the upcoming iphone and the Surprisingly quiet Motorola phones.

Its about freaking time, now we are finally going to see what WP8 can bring to the table. I'm all about competition and it's about time they get into the game seriously.

I assume Nokia wont get a dual core chip?
Didnt Elop recently say dual core is bad on phones or something like that?
