Nokia seems to bring a lot more to the table than WP7.

# Windows Phone 7 is amazingly fast and responsive while also being unique
If the guy has previously only used WMx then he probably has reason to be surprised at the speed.

# Windows Phone 7 is rock solid stable and after using it since July 2010 I can confirm it is the MOST stable mobile operating system I have ever used
Ditto

# Windows Phone 7 gaming rocks, Zune is fantastic, multiple Exchange support is solid, Office integration is great, and developers are building apps
Who cares about gaming and zune. Only real "advantage" is Exchange and Office, and only by "virtue" of MS controlling and locking those.

# Email on Symbian blows, but on Windows Phone 7 it absolutely rocks and I prefer to use my WP7 smartphone for email handling over even my Outlook desktop client
I'm not sure whether that's more of a comment on the state of desktop Outlook than the perceived goodness of WP7 email.

In summary a clueless commentary with no content.
