I use a WP7 device. I got it because the closest ATT store to where I live is the store on the Microsoft campus and they carry just the WP7 lineup (duh) so I got that. My interest in WP7 was piqued once I saw the efforts to provide interesting APIs for phones : http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hawaii/instructors/ http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hawa... Also, I am not a phone dev and I could build a working app without going through whatever the Hello World version is (I have never used silverlight before and had to do very minor googling) in approx 7 hours.
