match made in heaven,i thought people liked android phones,i know nothing about phones,isn't the market large enough for everybody
Above & Beyond
Titanic keeps eye on Hindenburg, perhaps?
Only kidding, I personally hope that WP8 takes off. I've gone from webOS, to iOS, to Android, yet to be satisfied (Android is a high, though... iOS was the low)... if WP8 has some decent phones/support by the time that I get my next handset, I'll be willing to dip my toe, so-to-speak (though it almost certainly won't be a Sony phone).

Sony phones usually have a very appealing aesthetic, and in my opinion melds well with the beauty of the Metro UI. There are only 3 'MAJOR' OEM's supporting it and a fourth would be awesome!
I'm currently waiting on my HTC 8x in the mail as we speak.
Meh, of course Sony would be looking to follow the crowd, but all in all it would be friendemy thing or coop-ition or whatever, where they'd probably only go for Microsoft if msft absolutely stole the show with their wp8.
Why?
I just don't see a company helping to further a competitor, bc that would mean stronger competition in the gaming arena.

If Sony and Windows Phone had a Facebook relationship status it would definitely be "It's Complicated." It's no secret that Sony - in its previous incarnation as Sony Ericsson - flirted with the idea of bringing a Windows Phone device to market to the point of investing in making prototypes. If you are an avid Windows Phone fan you would have seen the Sony-Ericsson proto-type that did the rounds prior the Windows Phone 7.5 update called the "Jolie". It seemed like the PlayStation company seriously contemplated on releasing a Windows Phone 7.5 device before bailing out at the last minute.

The xperia x1 and x2 were both windows?
I would like to see this happen, Windows phone need more than the choice of samsung, htc and nokia currently.
But, if people want an awesome windows phone 8, then look at the Nokia lumia 920 first http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/products/phone/lumia920/
Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

No, and are you talking about which phones in particular?

They don't really count, as certainly the X1 wasn't made my Sony (let alone Sony Ericsson) it was made by HTC
They have completely changed their phone business since then, firstly moving only to Android phones and secondly they are now Sony
Personally, as owner of first the X10 and now the XPERIA S, I love the way that the phones look and feel, but I also like the way that Windows 8s look. My concern about Win 8 is not the app store, since I basically don't use any on my phone, but simple things like the calendar and email. I use google for all these things, so as pretty as Win 8 looks, it just isn't as good, unless google release their own applications for it
But in reality, a stronger Windows Phone 8 means more competition for Android and iOS, which is probably good for everyone
Sony burn itself with X1 and X2 on the old slow mo Windows Mobile 6.0, imagine if it the first Xperia was on Android Sony might have been the Samsung today. Too bad they always made bad decisions, hope they wont repeat it.
Just look at Nokia today, nuff said.
