hi hi
what will you be using the phone for? Win Ph7 has two main drawbacks, no copy and paste (if you are accustomed to messenger phones [nokia e series, iphones etc] this would probably be something you have used once, if not more than once), and as it hasnt launched yet, and is a new platform, there really arent that many non-m$ apps for it at the moment.
i'm abit techy, and in the past months CodeProject has been email members with snippets on how to use the platform, and if you look around from a developer's point of view, this WinPh7 OS is prett exciting (microsoft got something right for once!) so i would say alot of people (developers) would at least try out a thing or two (i've seen previews of media players already, and the rumour is there will be microsoft office 2010 mobile edition on WinPh7 phones) so you wouldn't lose out on productivity software, just all those other one off games and rare apps you may have (since youre running android which has a large base of apps)
other than that, WinPh7 has been really standing out, people have been shocked by the UI response, JGruber (an apple fanboy with high high UI standards) said it was shockingly good, much better performance from the phone he demoed versus his NexusOne. Now phones come in all budgets and surely he was given a demo phone that would be at the upper end of a persons budget, but he compared it and rated it higher than his nexus one, which is also at the upper end of persons budgets, so it could be a very good buy
overall, many people have been saying it is iphone quality in many areas, it doesnt have the cut and paste, it doesnt have multitasking (but only the latest iphones have that), it does have m$ behind it. oh and by release date users should be able to configure their homescreen with different tiles which is quite cool, and as some1 who has an iphone, i think the info-rich home screen offered by android and winph7 now is way better than just an app screen to launch diff apps.
jus my 2c on this
