Pureview 920 vs IP5,S3 and One X.

Impressive. I've considered making the jump to WM if the new devices are decent. How tied to software are the WM phones? Can I plug it in and drag/drop files at will or do I require something like Zune to transfer data?

Well, as a WP7 user, my only concern is performance of WP8, because while it may look somewhat similar, everything underneath is completely changed. And to be honest, some of MS succeeding "Metro" design work is just ass. I'm a Windows Media Center user...love it. WP7...love it. But they've basically disbanded the MC team and are getting away from design and typography (count me in the "keep the gutter" camp). The new "Outlook.com" redesign for Hotmail is just hideous. Both in usability and looks.

So we will see...but if they have maintained the super fluid performance, are adding features and not losing any, and the 920 comes out on VZW...SOLD.

Are you kidding? Outlook.com is awesome.

A mount doesn't demonstrate anything. No one ever carries around a mount for their phone so it would prove nothing that matters in the real world. Most people do seem to try and be perfectly still when taking a picture with their camera.

That wasn't my point. Reread.

I think they ran around on my lawn first. Arghhh, I hate it 😛

All indications are that WP8 will have some sort of file management access.
