if us WP users are lucky enough we might even get a 4th button that when pressed shoots poison darts into our eyes so we can't look at other phones and wish we had them.

In all honesty, the only people that like my lumia is girls, however they won't buy one because all the guys they know have BBM.

So I can't see the lumia being to good with my generation (just turned 18). Which is we're they needed to target to get their brand recognition back.

Just from over hearing things the general views are

BB, break way to easy, but have BBM
Android, slow and sluggish on older models, however people love the amount of apps and think that bigger is better. Oh and they all think its better than IOS because its UI is intuitive
Apple, this is regarded as the snob phone. People who have these are the ones that care too much about their image, or are for parents that aren't great with technology.
Nokia, good cameras, old, outdated. Only buy them if you want a phone that is just a phone.
If you bring up n9 they just try to justify buying there phone (like everyone would), bring up n900 they all say 'you mean your old block phone? Yeah that was pretty amazing'

Maybe you should take a read of the next working generations views before you commit to buying Nokia stocks. It seems pretty bleak, and it was already dismal before that.

Also, if anyone foolishly wants to trade an n9 for my lumia then let me know.
