i think some people miss the point on multi cores... firstly coming from a programmer background, i was a big android fan... but this new windows os 7.5 is simply good enough for convincing me of abandoning android... i do not think for one minutes about specs since using windows os 7.5... i have a nokia lumia 800... i can say for the first time nokia has done very well... they used outdated softwares and continue to do so in third world countries unfortunately to accumulate capital to compete in europe.... nokia has finally adopted a winning formula with windows.... forget multicores if your main purpose if growing internet, phone emails, youtube... some partial angry bird games... the only thing i miss from android is the shortcuts to different setting from android but i can forsake it for this well designed os.

Okay, so the scorecard is as follows:
1) Back in Nokia World, the big wigs said our first devices are great, but wait until you see our devices on Apollo.
2) Microsoft said our Mango devices are great, but just wait for multi-core, hi def screens, Office tools, and upgrades on Apollo.
3) Samsung said we are disappointed with our Omnia/Focus Flash and Focus S sales, but we are dedicated to WP, and we will up our game with Apollo.
4) HTC said we are excited about the future of WP, they make us money, but just you wait until you see what we have with Apollo.
5) Now Sprint is interested, but not until a quad-core monster is released on Apollo?

So, we will 1 great effort (Nokia 900/910 for Europe), one updated effort (Titan 2), and mid range efforts from ZTE and LG as well as low end Tango releases for developing countries (great plan, always thought that was well thought out) to compete with every other offering until Winter of this year?

Boy, I bet most of WP potential sales wait.on Apollo.

maybe I ditched Sprint for T-Mobile too soon? That 3G though, Sprint sucks at that.

i personally am excited for when Apollo comes on the Samsung Exynos processor. THAT will be awesome.

What about faithful tmo and everybody else? These kinds of rumors just pisses me of! The term fragmentation comes to mind.
