My wife seems to really like her Windows phones.  She just upgraded to that giant one.

I have not played around with any Windows 8 phones, but having used a Surface tablet quite a bit now, I'm tempted to pick up a cheap Surface 2.

I use a Lumia. I have no complaints.

For some reason, I always thought Nail Gaiman was Phil Spector old.   Oh wait, that's David Geffen.   Always get those 3 mixed up.
