I would buy a WP7 device with the camera module of the N8. Assuming there is no WebOS/Android alternative out there.
But I have never used it extensively..

I would NEVER buy anything from MS. Actually, after such Nokia f**kup I have each and every reason to hate MS more than ever. What a bunch of tricky bastards. Why the hell Nokia allowed to get itself tricked? I bet Nokia will disappear from scene soon, at least as decent and competitive mobile phones vendor I knew and loved. I have a very little idea why the hell I would need third rate, proprietary, restricted OS which lacks any software and which has already failed for Samsung, HTC and LG all together. Why the hell I should see how Nokia will fail as well? Are they so dumb that they want to completely destroy their company? Ouch. I would miss you, Nokia! Farewell and rest in peace. You were a great company once but everything that haves begin would have also it's end, unfortunately. So, this seems to be Nokia's end at the moment. It's sad.

These is why Nokia Win7 is not going to get my money!
[edit] Features removed from Windows Mobile
Windows Phone 7 lacks some features that were found in earlier versions of Windows Mobile. Among the features that have been confirmed to arrive in the near-future include cut, copy, and paste,[65] full multitasking for 3rd party apps,[66] and Adobe Flash.[67] Windows Phone 7 supports upgradable storage via an SD Card; however SD card memory is merged with the phone's internal storage, and changing the SD card causes the phone to reset to factory settings.[68][69] Windows Phone 7 does not support connecting to Wi-Fi (wireless) access points which are hidden[70] or have a static IP address,[71] tethering to a computer[72] (although it can be done via a hack on the Samsung Focus[73]), videocalling,[74] VoIP calling,[75] USB mass-storage,[76] universal email inbox,[76] universal search,[76] a system-wide file manager,[74] Bluetooth file transfers,[74] USSD messages,[77] or custom ringtones.[78]
Windows Phone 7 devices only support syncing with Exchange ActiveSync[79] over the network. There is no support for syncing with Exchange ActiveSync using a cable or cradle.
In the enterprise, Windows Phone 7 does not support Office documents with security permissions,[80] IPsec security,[81] on-device encryption,[82] strong passwords,[71] or internet sockets.[75] While the older Windows Mobile phones supported the full range of Microsoft Exchange Server policies, Windows Phone 7 only supports a small subset of Exchange features.[83] The Calendar app no longer has a 'Weekly' view.[71] The list of past phone calls is now a single list, and cannot be separated into inbound, outbound or missed calls.[71]

Too bad I'm not any more interested in Android than I am in WP7. So I just finished ordering an E7 (hopefully there's still enough life in Nokia to deliver it?). With that and my trusty N900 I should be fine for a while..

Just got sent this link. I'm not interested but I have to admit they're pretty good looking ...

I'll definitely not buy WP7. Android isn't bad, but debian is way better, and I'm not ready to let Google datamine my phone.
