Yellow 920 is best 920.
I'm still trying to figure out why teal is more like cyan than cyan is.

So not loving Xbox music at the minute DRM errors, uses the Sync'd cloud version of music rather than the Uploaded to device version WTF

I think the cyan theme could use a little more saturation/blue and maybe a smidge more green to match the phone, but the teal looks off to me.
I do miss the flexibility I had with a white phone. Just about any theme goes well with it.
EDIT: Scratch that. It's funny how the lighting around you affects the cyan color. Thought the phone was pretty ugly when I picked it up at night and saw it under yellow lights. Cyan theme feels pretty accurate...in my current lighting.

When most of my music is in the cloud turning sync off is a no no,I just have a bit on the device for when I pass through known dead spots for network coverage.

There is option to turn off sync music, but yeah Xbox music need work. There is an article about it on WPCentral.
Sweet! What color?

HW84, phone looks sexy man.
Any idea if they'll be selling any unlocked/off-contract Lumia 920s there?

You know what, I would almost guarantee it. I'm also assuming that they will sell them on contract too, so the question is; how long will they last?
I'm wondering if the price would be cheaper than the $649 that Rogers charges for the unlocked Lumia 920.
I'm still waiting for my unlock code from a site so I can use mine on Bell or look at Mobilicity

Sadly I doubt it, even though our dollar has been at parity and higher the US Dollar for awhile now. Rogers is holding MS by the balls probably.
Whaaat. It doesn't even recognize it as a mobile browser anymore and switch to the skin. Oh god x.x Thank you.

debating it ... Do you think they will have wireless chargers gor the 920?

For real though, how the hell do I sync my video podcasts from Zune OR iTunes? I'm running Win8, if that helps. The metro app doesn't seem to have that ability.

Have you tried Windows Media Player?
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
The only article I read on that talked about syncing music, not podcasts. I already hate having to download audio podcasts on my device, it'll be complete bullshit if I can't sync video podcasts through iTunes. Thurrott talks on his site about syncing via iTunes, but it looks like the desktop app. The metro app is absolute garbage. Pure shit. Even front posted pics of how he synced podcasts, but his screenshots look nothing like the metro app that downloads when I plug my phone in.

I think the only way to manage video podcast is sadly via the phone. I don't really watch that many podcast (mostly audio) so it doesn't really impact me but yeah they really need to do something with Xbox on Windows 8 ... the apps for both Music and Video just suck period.
Oh, I discovered the joy of using Media Player again. It always work better than Zune for me for making CD and I lean to enjoy manually moving stuff in and out of folder like the good older managing MP3 players.

Hard to say. Everything has been so hush hush so far.

even a case would be nice ... Not a decent case for the 920 to be found today and I looked all over downtown Toronto. Did fund one store with a crappy bumper case but I want a nice leather wallet style.

Maybe 10 years ago when I worked nearby, but now I won't go near there unless I have to... particularly not in November.

I'm still thinking about it. I live downtown so it will take 45 min or so to get there. I dint want to go only to have tears when they don't have any 920 cases or wireless chargers in stock.
I work downtown but I live east of the city, so I would need to take the GO home then drive back in the evening... not happening. Maybe if the wife wants to take the kids there on Sunday I'll check it out.

Yeah dude, I was just coming here to post about how frustrating the podcast experience has been. Utterly ridiculous.
VanMardigan
has calmed down a bit.
Beta app is trash for podcasts. It recognizes the podcasts and syncs them to the phone but won't automatically delete the ones I've already viewed. Also, it crashes way too much.

This doesn't run at 720p and is getting ported to WP7.
Yep it's awful and judging from Joe Belfiore's twitter comments this morning it seems like they have misunderstood why everyone is upset about it.

We should all just band together and annoy them over twitter till they add the 7 lines of code (I'm exaterating, but it shouldn't be too hard since I'm assuming they would have built the program with the future in mind...) to Zune to allow it to recognize WP8 devices.

lol, Joe dropped the "why don't you just drag and drop your mp3's into the phone" line. What the hell is this, android? Get that shit outta here, give me full device sync, and give it to me without that turd software from Apple.
