I'm really liking the phone and WP, but what's with the marketplace? It's baron!!! There's pretty much nothing going on. Is this down to how MS regulate app creation and stuff?
The best thing I've found so far is Wiztiles but that itself has an issue wereby it has to run the program itself to process the shortcut. :/

I wouldn't call 60,000 apps baron?

It looks like a good option for people wanting to buy a budget smartphone, but coming from a Desire S? Not really sure if you would class that as an 'upgrade'. It's subjective i guess...
Not really looking at it as an upgrade, but a change in OS. Couple of bugs with HTC Sense 3.0 that are annoying. My brother has an Optimus 7 and its very nice to use.

Rather than going all out and buying a completely different phone have you tried using a custom rom? Android becomes a completely different beast when you start tinkering. And it's pretty unique in that you're allowed to tinker. It's practically encouraged

Hmmm, that's a bit of a weird way of doing things. Given how nice the UI is of WP I'd have thought an easier way of adding apps to the market would be something they'd do, because that's something that would expand their share of the market pretty rapidly. I didn't even realise there wasn't a Dropbox app until I tried searching for one before and that's actually really annoyed me. Just seems a bit silly how the marketplace is.
missing apps will comes eventually i think microsoft trying to push more for faster release by listening to what people want and taking care of it
beside windows phone says "Put People First "

Hmmm my laptop can not find the drivers to install the phone and it's not found in Zune. Any ideas?

You say that, but it seems a bit of a catch 22 situation as developers arn't gonna waste resources developing apps for a OS with very low marketshare and people are gonna be resistant to using a OS with a weak choice in apps.
actually windows phone apps development are faster than android and similar or faster than ios when both start currently marketplace has 60000 apps 5000 or more each month submitted / added to the marketplace
i think the os is getting recognized more and more thanks to Microsoft / Nokia effort
it just need time

I do. 
A lot easier to look through photos, events.
Pages and Groups are particularly a much needed addition.
