I know, weird, right? In short, its good. Real good. And I was holding out for the Nexus! I'm not sure about this hardware (essentially a SGS2), but the WP7 interface is just slick.
And useful. I don't know how it compared to your dog-attack Zune (player) OS, but that has been a few years now.
I'm a pretty boring user, but I've actually found apps for almost everything I did before. So they've got their bases (
mostly) covered. Scrabble clone, podcasts, forum browsing, WordPress, news feed bombardment, etc. The store and community are both smaller, they're there. It doesn't have many games available, but I keep seeing things suggesting these devices will run games surprisingly well for "low-end" hardware.
I suppose one could gripe about task switching. Its multitasking is more a list of the last 6 things you were doing than true multitasking. Still, it's a step up for me and has been usable enough.
I'll give it a few more weeks to be sure, but all in all, I think it can be a winner. Plus,
it's alwaysit can be fun to root for the underdog
