Even though the first and second generation phones will receive WP 7.8 instead of the WP8, it looks like a small backlash did not stop some people from buying a new Windows Phone device.
In fact, according to the recent report, WP market share has grew by a 0.8 point, up from 0.62% to 0.7%, reaching levels seen back in July, 2012.
With more than $1 billion ad campaign coming with Windows Phone 8, we expect to see a significant uptrend increase in the next coming quarters.
Stay tuned.
