This awesome list was posted by Anonymous coward on a recent Slashdot topic here and I copied it verbatim here. It contains all sorts of missing features or defects from WP platform that, if addressed in WP8, might help WP gain more users. I consider this my new wishlist for WP8. Let’s hope it gets picked up by Nokia and/or Microsoft and that they implement most, if not all, of this stuff.
You want to know the real reason Nokia is failing? Because they jumped off the dock when the SS Windows Phone was just poise to sink anyway. Windows Phone is a pile of shit. Here’s why:
OS LIMITATIONS
1. No true multitasking for 3rd party apps – they re frozen in the background.
2. No Divx/Xvid video codec support. Zune will convert with loss of quality.
3. No mass storage mode.
4. No micro-SD card support.
5. Only support up to 16GB storage .
6. No filemanager. Directory system is totally opaque.
7. Need Zune to transfer files. Zune will only transfer photos, videos & music. All other files need to email/upload to yourself.
8. Your contact details are automatically uploaded to cloud service whether you like it or not.
