Yeah, I haven't used W7P, but you yourself have admitted that using google maps and google search is a hassle, and I don't consider bing maps or bing search to be valid options, hence W7P have a terrible UI for me. The majority of the world does not view bing or bing maps as a valid choice, and thus for the majority of the world, it has a terrible UI. You can enjoy it all you like.

How does that make the UI bad? You don't like the services on the phone, fair enough, but how is it Microsoft's fault that Google isn't providing their services with a smart and accessible UI on the phone?

Also, a statement like "the majority of the world does not..." reeks of fanboyism. Show me the evidence please. And while I can't show you evidence for the opposite for the entire world, I can show you that Bing has about 30% of the search engine market in the US. If Bing can hold a 30% marketshare in the US, then perhaps the people viewing it as an invalid choice of search engine, only do so out of perception?
