As an existing WM user, I am definitely looking to get WP7 when it is released. I've been very happy with WM, and I know that there will be some areas where the restrictions of WP7 will get in the way compared to WM, but I'm hopeful that the developer base will have a large enough selection of apps that most of it won't be a problem for me.
On the plus side for WP7, I am looking forward to the Zune functionality and also at considering the monthly Zune Pass bundle. I think that if MS have got the hardware spec right, WP7 will be more media capable than my aging HTC handset. I'm also hoping that there will be decent functionality to allow me to sync/transfer WTV recordings from Media Center over to the phone - something that doesn't work well with WM.
I'm keeping a positive attitude on this one. I think that a reboot is clearly needed and this looks like it could be the shot in the arm. It won't be perfect on day 1 but if MS can continue to develop it AND release updates on a somewhat regular basis, I'll be a happy customer.
