Actually, its features, flexibility and support. It's kind of disappointing to find that what I still consider to be a half-closed operating system has been hacked and extended far more than what Nokia has been bloviating as open. It's especially disappointing to someone that has been running Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris 10 all over the house and has LONG moved away from Windows and Macintosh's older OS's. (I haven't owned a MacOS X system yet.) Nokia has been a major let-down.

I'm not sure that I agree that the advantage in UI/UX goes to Windows Phone 7, though, seeing as how I've seen it replicated on Android in that wonderfully flexible way that Android lets you do so--therefore pretty much negating that advantage. :P
