The NPD group, a consumer market research firm, found that 44% of all smartphone users, shoppers are interested in purchasing a Windows Phone 7 based phone as their next purchase. 

According to LaptopMag.com, Android may face competition from Windows Phone 7 now more than iPhone 5. The article also said 63% of those polled were interested in the Android OS, but that isn't too far ahead of the 44% interested in WP7. 

The survey also found that 45% of consumers are still not aware of Windows Phone 7, which could be a problem for Microsoft. Are you aware of WP7? Interested in it? 

What do you think is so appealing about Windows Phone 7? Do you think it will soon be a three way split between iOS, Android and Windows Phone 7, knocking the BlackBerry platform off it's teetering lead?
