You should really keep up with the current state of WP7. WM7 doesn't exist.


>No multi-tasking, results in lots of reloading…

WP7 has multi-tasking... always has, just not available to users until this fall.

>No cut, copy, and paste

already availa ble(NODO update)

>No custom ringtone capability
coming this fall, but there are already hacks that allow this.

>Limited customizability on Start screen
No start screen on WP7, you're still thingking the old phone. You can customize the landing page anyway you want. Apps pinned to it, tiles. switched, added, or deleted.

>Lack of some key apps (Evernote, Kindle or Nook, and podcatcher)
don't know about this... I try not to read books on a small screen

>Office apps are pretty limited in terms of what you can do from the phone
Why would anyone want to write a word document on a phone? Funcitonality available is geared towards mobile experience.

>Inconsistency in auto rotation (especially lame with kickstand and then Zune always in portrait mode)
Have had some problems with this, but not a show stopper.

>Lock into Zune software for PC connections (no drive or file access)
At least we're not being spammed with key loggers and seccurity issues... Apple has same thing...

>Lack of tethering support
tether is not a function of the OS, its a carrier function. BTW, I can and do tether my samsung focus all the time.

>Lack of ability to capture screensh
Wow!! there's a real show stopper..... coming this fall anyway...

So, I think you're reasons and arguments against WP7 are bogus. By this fall, it will have far superior quality, capability and user experience than android ever will...
