MS is definitely out of the race for smartphones and operating systems. Apple and RIM rule and most mobile developers aren't even giving MS the time of day anymore.Posted on Aug 20, 02:58
So, how does WM 6.5 allow MS to compete with Android? The WM 6.5 platform is so far from being anywhere near what Android developers can do that it is a joke. I think MS is going to split existing WM developers and lose market share at a faster pace.Posted on Aug 19, 22:48
Microsoft invests time and money in WinMo. They have been losing money on that division since its inception. Why is it so hard for folks to realize that everything Microsoft has done outside of Windows and Office has only lost money.Posted on Aug 19, 21:41
A dual OS? Didn't Ballmer just jump all over Google for that? WM 6.5 can't touch Android and WM 7 won't touch the iPhone. Microsoft's strategy is DOA.
