The point is, people like me ARE willing to spend li\e, but due to lack of credit card we have to go the hard way..
The only thing I have purchased through android market is Dead Space and Mass effect, and that too from friend's credit card
Microsoft should invest in operator based payment, that would be nice :D

Okay. Now thats some sensible statement.

But If somebody doesnt want to adopt WP because it doesnt let them use pirated stuff, then so be it. I'd much rather have an appstore where the devs feel their effort will be rewarded and keep them motivated to make more and more importantly better apps, than one thats flooded with free to use but filled with stupid advertisements everywhere. For one I believe we are seeing the effect already in the WP marketplace - The metro design language has led to the development of some of prettiest apps I have ever seen and you see people in forums buying them even if they dont really need it. Talk about committed customers. While its good if somebody can make a game free, dont go on and harp about how you'll upgrade your 1 star rating of that game to 5 only if its free - that review speaks more about your peanut-brain than about the game itself.

Yeah I agree. Why do they only work with credit cards? They should support those atm cum debit card that almost everybody has.

I don't think so, coz lots of sites sell Cyan-L520.

Whether Nokia's 1-yr warranty on its mobiles is same - both from online-buy as well as from local-store-buy?

Only problem is many people are selling the phone just because they are too lazy to explore this os...my frind sold it for that reason to me

Heard not all Micro SDHC cards are compatible with L520.
Which brand to consider when buying?

The only thing that's holding me back from buying the Lumia 520 is lack of Free games
i could play a paid game for free in Android and possibly do much more.

and you can spend Rs. 12,000 on a phone and then not spend Rs. 50 on 3-4 games each.

Some people (like me) dont have a credit card.. so its impossible to purchase anything from Windows phone store..
In android play store, it was possible to login using a friend's id and pass who had already purchased some apps and download them to my phone..
Is that possible in Windows phone too ?

It's okay then.

But I doubt people who have a CC or a working debit card buy games.

I too believe that amounts to piracy.

Btw arent there online services which let you use your debit cards as credit cards for a small fee?
I had read about in some thread here where people wanted to buy something from some foreign site that insisted on credit cards...
