Let's keep this simple folks.
Just continue using your Windows Phones, forget about all this talk. If you are truly a Windows Phone fan, none of this would bother you. It will happen when it happens.
Most of us probably won't be able to afford it anyway. Those who can afford them are just bored. They buy the latest tech every 3 months because they can. Not really true fans.
I say put all this time and energy into saving up money for when it does arrive. I don't think it will be apps that people will want by then, I think it will be power. I know I'm NOT gonna be saving my money up just for a bunch of extra apps I'll never use. I'll be looking for hardware and software improvements.
It's my opinion that Microsoft didn't mess up, Windows didn't mess up, the PEOPLE messed up. They didn't BUY the phones. They didn't USE the phones. Many didn't even TRY them. They got what they deserve. Their loss!
I ignore stupid articles now
