    Now that sounds more like it, since I have been wanting to get off the iPhone platform for a while (I fell off my bike yesterday and my 4S is completely smashed to pieces inside my pocket, basically the last straw for the iPhone) I really am looking into getting one of these, Hopefully a contract for the 920 won't be too far out my reach :) would be really cool though to have a mat on my table and when ever I put my phone on it, it starts charging, that would be really cool.

    I want one of those!!!!!!! They look fantastic and the specs of the 920 are impressive. I hope with a two year contract I can get the phone at a good price!

    Nokia makes a good quality phone. I'll stick with the Galaxy series though.

    @Burty
    From the looks of it, I am sure Lumia 920 will beat SGS III on quality front hands down. On the performance side (keeping in mind that Lumia 800 gives pretty good run for its money to multi-core droids with its single core SoC & very efficient OS), I expect it to beat SGS III in most cases. Other big plus would be WP doesn't seems to suffer from ills (I.e. reliability/stability/performance) of android. I've ditched many droids after few months usage due to above (+more) issues, but never found a droid which could work reliably day in day out. So, all what is left for me is to decide, whether I want to have a ATIV S (which seems to be following Omnia line's construction practices) or this Lumia 920 ;)

    First windows phone that has even slightly tempted me to give one a try after the experience of Windows Mobile 6.1.
