I'm am/was big Angular fan, myself.... However, I came to a team that couldn't GROK the scope of Angular, and Knockout.JS was so much, easier for them to approach. They are now into the whole reactive UI thing, have their code organized into view models. Now, over time, I can start sprinkling in Q library, and other Angular-esqe libraries and they'll be a lot happier. Another nice thing about Knockout.JS that I've come to appreciate is that it's about 10x easier to make custom binding handlers than it is to create Angular directives. And we had to write a custom service layer anyway, so it's not like we needed that from the Angular library.
