i am always on my lumia. Browsing i use my ipad 2 but for social integration its bloody fast and smooth especially chatting on facebook and windows live messenger.
True, it's has very amazing, deep and comprehensive Social Networks integration. For people who use Social Network such as Windows Live or Facebook or Twitter a lot, should really check out this phone.
This is one feature they really do very detail on, for people who use Facebook, it'll be like a Facebook phone. You can do almost everything from the phone without using any Facebook app or logging to Facebook website. You can view your friend's albums easily, you can group contacts and view updates by group.
The only thing I wish they improve on is the upload part, make it like Maemo/MeeGo, so we can upload to albums and create albums too, and also choose the resolution, metadata, etc.
What's more, those feeds will be cached and stored into your phone. So even if you go offline, you can still read them. So, it's very useful when you're not free, but your phone would already downloaded the latest updates, then you went out and maybe you're waiting for someone, you can take out your phone and read the updates even when offline. So this makes your easier to keep up-to-date, even if you seldom use Facebook, you will have easier access, so you're most likely to keep up-to-date with the latest updates.
Same goes for photo, as long you view before, it will be saved into the phone so you can view it anytime.

dunno why note still the best for me. i leave my lumia alone in bedroom. always with note. i think, lumia might asking itself. " y u no touch me ". fuuuuuu ... "
Depend what you want to use it for. Windows Phone have it's interesting features, namely the Social Networking Service (SNS) integration, and for people who work with office documents, the office integration is a plus. People who want a simple, smooth and stable phone, the Windows Phone would also be a better choice.
Given the choice, I would prefer Note too because I don't need a super smooth and super stable phone. I can bear with it because I want the flexibility and what it can do. Just like a sports car, if you want a turbo car, then you should know that it needs more care, more attention, fuel consumption when you drive fast, etc.
So, it really depends on individual, what they want and what they're looking for. Most important is they KNOW and UNDERSTAND what they want, don't choose because others say it's good because what's good for others may not mean it's good for you.

I have some questions here...
How is the Lumia 800?
Is it stable?
Any bugs?
Is it smooth to use?
Are there sufficient free apps in the marketplace?
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Sufficient or Not, it depends on individual. It maybe sufficient for Mr. A, but not for Mr. B, or Mr. C will say too much, and Mr. D will say too little, and so on.
It depends what you want and looking for. You should know the advantages and disadvantages of a phone first.
