Unless you’ve been travelling in the Amazon jungle, absent of any Internet signal, you would have heard or read about Nokia’s new Lumia 1020 smartphone complete with its 41mp camera, and snap on camera grip which includes a further battery too.

And as soon as I watched the Nokia announcement, I decided the Lumia 1020 was an ideal choice of phone for me. Except one issue. It runs on windows phone 8. Now windows phone 8 is excellent. I really like the user interface and general operation. The app situation isn’t a problem either for me.

But then my nightmare problem dawned on me. At present I use the HTC One running Google’s android operating system. With this operating system I use Google Music, Maps, Navigation and Google Now regularly. These services really help make the phone so much better. And because the Lumia 1020 is a windows phone 8, none of these options are available.

I really don’t know what to do… So help me out with your thoughts.
