This week the internet was buzzing about how upwards of 5 million Android users have phones infected with annoying adware. To help out, we offered up 20 free Windows Phones to people who shared their story about their frustrations with their Android phone, and why a Windows Phone would be a welcome upgrade.
I got nearly 1000 responses since we kicked things off (thanks to everyone who sent in a story!), and out of those, here are our 20 winners:
- @GeoffEff – I REALLY wish my Galaxy Nexus would stop rebooting while I’m on the phone.
