Does the offer apply for disgrunted iOS users?

 

[shoda]

I'm with pythy, what about us iOS users?!

 

[Yuka]

Hope this doesn't turn against them... It's very arrogant to do this kind of publicity/stunt.

Oh well, let's see how this turns out.

Cheers!

Pity their marketing strategy. If you can't beat them, blame them- and give away free phones?

 

[bluekoala]

I'm willing to bet 10$ that percentage wise there will be more disgruntled windows phone users.
That if there will be windows phone users other than the ones who win a phone from this contest.

What ever do you mean? There's nothing wrong with iOS devices; they just work.

post some "arrow to the knee" jokes on his post. you might win wp7. profit!

i used to have an android phone, then i took an arrow to the knee. Now, im just hoping to win free WP7.

nice try microsoft

Wonder what they gave Androids users on Verizon, seeing how they cant get a WP7 phone worth a dam on big red.

What do I get for the many years of Windows malware issues?

I think it's quite a smart marketing move. I know many people who go straight to the iPhone when they get sick of putting up with Android because they think the iPhone is the only other option. This is a way for them to capture some of those people looking to move away from Android.

Honestly their WP7 is great. They just didnt market properly or they got into it late. And from what i see, Nokia models seem to be inferior in hardware to whats coming from other companies.

So they are not in a good shape hardware wise. I hope, Samsung and HTC boost WP7 and W8 devices.

 

[holdingholder]

Damn, the thumbs-downers are in full effect on this one.

 

[dtm4trix]

this whole thread is malware

 

[JOSHSKORN]

Now if only the tables were turned. I have a Windows Mobile 6.1 phone, I'm disgruntled and want an Android phone now.

 

[phamhlam]

Just look at the product reviews of most...maybe all windows phone on the 4 nation carriers. They get mostly 5 star reviews from hundreds of people. They are great phones once you give them a try but there are still a few sour folks who might need something from Android or iOS.

 

[razorblaze42]

Anyone know if Windows Phones also have the malware "carrier iq"?

 

[freggo]

Hey, just a fair offer.
After all, you can get FREE Linux if you are a disgruntled Windows user 🙂
