Texas, unfortunately.
Out of curiosity why are you going back?
To this day I don't think there has been a more intuitively designed mobile OS - I just love it to pieces. I know there's no support, and very few apps that shrink in number by the day: But I really don't need a smartphone for apps and games. I just enjoy having a easy to use and beautifully designed OS combined with the best smartphone keyboard I've ever used, to make calls, send texts, and browse the web. :)

I have a cyan nokia 920 (windows phone). While I've had my issues, overall I'm pretty satisfied with the windows experience (even though all my computers are macs). I have all the apps I need, decent battery life, intuitive interface, great camera. I'm older, so maybe that makes a difference, i don't know...looking forward to 2014, I think that wp9(or whatever) will probably cement microsoft as a solid 3rd leg of the mobile market.

iPhone 5s and Nexus 5. I've been absolutely adoring the N5! I can't wait to use it as my main phone for a while once when I receive my SIM card adaptor. :rolleyes: I'm also so in love with my 5s though... Not using it as my daily driver will be difficult but it's not going anywhere at all. :apple:

Still using an iPhone 4, and plan to keep it a bit longer, partly because I don't have the extra money to replace it anytime soon.

I suppose. I just assumed the ratio would be slightly higher here.

Ironically, the current poll mimmics the US marketshare numbers pretty darn close!

Your going DOWN from a Note 3 to a Moto G? :eek:

I thought it would replace my phone and tablet needs but I needed a larger screen. I was tempted with the Sony Ultra Z but I bought the rMini and I love it too much. So it's the Moto G and rMini for me.

I dont know what an rMini is. I tried Googling it and it brings up monster cables and forum discussions.

I am not surprised at the amount of BlackBerry users. I used to be a diehard BB fan, but those days are long past. They waited so long to release BB10 that most people moved on to either iOS or Android. Then when it did come out, what a major disappointment. You cannot keep up with the major platforms with what they released, and then have Windows Phone pass you up as well. I give it another year or two, and it will be done.

I think they are already pulling out of the consumer market and just trying to solidify their ground in the corporate world. Honestly, that may be the only way they can survive. Though even android phones have secure systems now. Like Samsung with their Knox.
