Because it looks and feels much better than the SGS2 and iPhone 4S. 

skype is coming this 29th.

besides skype there is tango for video call too.

so for the first time my lumia froze. Have you guys noticed but when you make calls , you need to wait quite a moment only it enters dialing mode (where the beep sounds ) ?

For my case when I called someone , before it reached the dialing mode I pressed the end call button but it wouldnt end , when i close it just say that the call is ending . So , i spam the end call button and it froze. about 30 secs later the phone shut down automatically . damn.

look nice, I'm jealous but will get my lumia by 2 more months at least D:

cos I'm still a student, now saving my allowance,
just a little more tho, thanks to ang pow received 

have you get yours? how was it?

can you detail on those bolded words? thx
bored of your s2 huh?

I want to change my n8

i am not using any phone right now and plan to get smartphone...thats the reason i am making careful decision before getting 1 of the these either S2,Iphone 4s or Lumia 800 plus for me the resell value is important.........

1. WhatsApp have. Viber coming soon. Skype have, but currently no background-services. Means cannot receive calls/text when the app is not running. Since Microsoft bought Skype, it's only a matter of time before this functionality arrives, and it will definitely be more awesome than the ones in Android/iOS.

2. Niche apps are still quite limited, for example like a Maybank or GSC app. Though popular apps are mostly there, like FB, WhatsApp etc.

Notification system really needs improvements.

Multitasking can be managed better.

Other than that, WP7 is just awesome. You will just be wowed by the design, both Nokia's hardware design and the buttery-smooth Metro UI is just... artistic. You don't look like a kid playing with silly icons. (Ha! Android and iOS users)

Mine show expire 2023 on whatsapp. Skype is free

It will notify inside the tile itself like 2 new message and etc

Everything is perfect except no mass storage, no ad hoc wifi, no Internet sharing, limited apps, must use Zune for music snd video transfer, no fm transmitter, no NFC, no Bluetooth file transfer, no SMS draft,

Apps are limited but there alot as well but not as much as android and iOS.

Heard viber is coming to Wp7 do not know when. If you are into social networking yes u will love it. Like me i prefer WP7 actually but if they can include all those i said would be better

Skype just announce an official app for WP7



lets wait for viber

Most stuff on Wp7 are free to try.

Whatsapp suppose have to pay but mine show expiry 2023 some when reach due it will extend so really free i also do not know. Skype is free

Just put Rm10 or RM20 enough for your transaction.
