Honestly, people will go where the apps are and buy what their friends have.

The apps are not on WP8, and I have yet to meet a person who has a Windows Phone as their main device.

I've been using a Lumia 710 as my primary phone and like it quite a bit. I still haven't decided to upgrade to Win Phone 8 though, as I like the smaller size of the 710 quite a bit, and the apps that I have are working well for me.
