Hello,

I'm a current Windows Phone user on Verizon. I originally was on a webOS with a Palm Pre+ but with HP tossing webOS down the toilet and my Palm Pre phone starting to act up I decided about halfway through my contract on Verizon last summer to buy a Trophy of ebay and give Windows a try out. I'd looked at the android phones and the Trophy in the local Verizon store and the Windows phone just looked a lot more easy for me to navigate around then the Androids so I ended up getting it.

My contract has since run out on Verizon and I've been just waiting and watching to see what they do about picking up more Windows phones. Not very promising to say the least. I really like the Trophy and Windows, but, I'm not being very hopeful that Verizon is going to do anything really grand with Windows right away even with the intro on WP8 later in the year. So in the meantime, I've been reading up more about the android phones and looking at them again. Even though they're not very high on Windows phones, It's never been a consideration for me to leave Verizon for say ATT or T-Mo who have them . Well, I really like the looks of that new Galaxy S3. It's the kind of phone that I want for my next phone and I just don't think Verizon is going to come out with anything like that in the near future in a Windows phone.

So I've signed on over here at android central to start reading up more on the android system and phones to help me I hope make the decision to switch and try out android. Guess I'll never know for sure how I'd like it or not unless I try it.

Ok, windows phone user, and I've taken the plung to try out Android for the first time. I got me a Verizon Galaxy Nexus off ebay in mail. Going to take it later today to activate it.

Got a question for you android experts. I use Itunes on my MacBook for my music which i want to continue using. I seen ISyncr in the app store for syncing to I tunes. A couple other forum postings I found seem to speak favorable of this app. Now this may sound like a dumb question, but, is this an app you load on the phone and then when I connnect the phone to the computer it will sync with Itunes? Again I know that sounds like a dumb question but with my windows phone, there's a program that loads on the computer that you then start up to sync with the phone.
