Windows Phone sales have quadrupled on strength of new hardware, software

I am biased. I want Windows Phone to succeed. Mobile OS's in their current state, make me feel like its a two party system. I really want more options as a consumer.<p>I realized recently, that I use my phone to its max potential. And, the same goes to every phone before that. What I am trying to say is. If my phone can email, take pictures, open spreadsheets, I will. There more it can do the more I will work from it. The Galaxy Nexus has allowed me to read books and write blog posts. I have connected it to a monitor and a mouse.<p>I would love my next phone to be a great mobile computing device. Competition should speed up mobile's computational abilities.

I'm biased, I want them to fail. I want to see Microsoft marginalized and put in a corner, where they can never again wield the power over industry the way they did in the 90's and early oughts. If you want more options as a consumer, don't vote with your money for Microsoft.
