edit: another comparo

Nokia Lumia 900 vs Iphone 4S Browser speed - YouTube!
The 4S is a bit faster rendering the webpages but once a WP renders a webpage everything is butter smooth from there. Pin to zoom, scrolling everything is very fluid.

I seen test were they compare iPhone vs WP and iPhone wins the browser speed but the overall feel of the webpage WP handles it better.

is this dual core, quad core all about marketing like camera pixel war?, It seems, the nokia runs single core just fine and speedy. I dont know about gaming on WP phones though.

Multiple cores are only useful when Single core isn't efficient enough handle its workload smoothly. If Nokia's phone run just fine and speedy without using multiple cores, props for them!

it depends on OS efficiency too android sucks in that department so they need heavy hitting hardware to compensate

but dual cores certainly help slightly quad on the other hand -_-

I agree.
But I really do want a free Lumia 900 and I don't think we'll be getting the Cyan or White ones before the 21st...

Awesome device, but that goes with knowing that the only iOS product I had was a 3rd gen. iPod Touch. It's extremely fast, though I can also say that about my friends' iPhone 4S. I moved from a 4 year old candy bar phone, so I can't say much other than that.

I do like the features that are built into WP7. Like how Bing supports phrase searching, QR code scanning, and music IDing. As well as the apps made specifically for Nokia devices like Nokia Creative Studio and Nokia Drive. Nokia Transit doesn't have support for Surrey yet, but I'd imagine in the future it would.

One thing I dislike, though, is how expensive the apps are The free apps will suffice for now. Not sure if iOS has this covered, but I love the cohesiveness of the Pictures app with 3rd party rendering apps.

Not sure if this guy is still selling his Nokia 900 Blk Rogers NEW

Though you can always buy your phone outright and order an unlock code.

You don't find that the hard and sharp line/edge around the screen bothers you?
