After about two weeks of fiddling, changing settings, finding a good BT headset (Jabra BT5010), changing settings some more, tweaking apps, installing new apps to replaced WMP, getting codecs, more tweaking, and finding a few things here and there, I'm finally content with the way my device works.

The iPhone asks users to spend a week learning its keyboard. WM phones ask you to spend a week customizing it, and then you can enjoy its constantly reliable keyboard (just to cite a comparison), and tremendous system versatility. I have made and read many posts trying to get everything optimized on this phone, and finally I think I'm at the point where my issues are resolved to where I'm happy to use it and stop tweaking.

For those of you new to WM, take your time. You'll find your happy place soon. Those of you upgrading from other WM platforms, play around, you'll get there. I, for one, am a happy camper. Finally.
