Smartphone: Should I wait for Windows 8?

Windows 8 has been proposed by Microsoft as the "unified environment" by tying all Microsoft devices together into a single OS. This will radically change the way smartphones interact with other devices, since they are all the same operating system.

So the question is this: should I wait for that first Windows 8 smartphone? Or, should I get another smartphone (not necessarily a Windows Phone 7 device) and put off the mobile Windows 8 platform until it is tried-and-true?

I usually make a habit of holding off on a major upgrade like that (desktop OS wise) until its out for a bit, but not with mobile OS's (since Id always be waiting). Your thoughts?
