In all Honesty... I can see them having no more than 11% market share which in the mobile landscape is a good thing.

The Droid 4 doesn't count?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

i suppose....but even then you are talking about ONE decent android out of the dozen that they carry, and it  retails for $549. i think they have 4 or 5 that retail for more so i don't know that i'd call it high end? it's nice though.

I love my Trophy, but I love the WP operating system most. AT&T is launching the new Nokia phone in late October to augment the launch of Windows 8 (which is also awesome, I've been running the beta version since February on my slate).

Verizon has become the store of "Android" and "Apple." If they don't kick-it-up and go Windows Phone, I'm off to AT&T in November. See 'ya Big Red!

I don’t pretend to know all the logistics involved in the overall decision making for which platforms are supported and what others are allowed to die on the vine, but I humbly request that Verizon please make an effort to provide access to more (and better) Windows Phone devices – Something like the Nokia 920 & Windows Phone 8 would be a welcome change of pace. I’m trapped on this network because of a work commitment, so I’ve no option to jump ship and go to another carrier where a better range of devices is available. They have one. One! Really? Then when you ask about them you are forced to listen to a condescending sales associate tell you "they aren't popular". "They", of course, meaning "It" - The one nice but uninspired piece of hardware they've begrudgingly provided.  It is a bit irritating to say the least.

RNDude and BackScatter, Be patient...    It is coming.  We have been waiting for a long time.  I laid eyes on my first windows phone - a prototype being showed off by a Microsoft Developer Evangelist at a developer event - two and a half years ago.  It's been a long time coming, and I was sorely disappointed when Verizon finally released Trophy, but I bought it, in hopes of showing support for it, and showing them that it was a desired platform.  I was upset with them last winter when they failed to bring on a WP 7.5 device, but now that I have learned that none of them can be upgraded to WP8, I am thankful, because I would have purchased one, and would have been stuck with a phone that couldn't be upgraded.  For once I am glad they didn't pick it up.

Now they have committed to support that platform.  They have formed an agreement with Nokia.  They have publicly voiced support for Windows Phone 8.  They have said that they want a strong third ecosystem and that they made Android what it is and that they can do the same with Windows Phone.  We are nearly there.  Be patient with me, my friends, and bask in victory.
