How Windows Mobile Is Becoming Microsoft's New Vista

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft's channel partners, meanwhile, are 
| seeing dwindling demand for Windows Mobile-
| related business. "We've stopped working with 
| Windows Mobile because our client base isn't 
| asking for it," said Stuart Crawford, 
| business development manager at Bulletproof 
| Infotech, a solution provider in Red Deer, 
| Alberta. "We've gone to Blackberry 
| internally, and we're seeing a lot of clients 
| asking for iPhone. I'm a strong Microsoft 
| advocate, but there are too many challenges 
| with Windows Mobile."

Microsoft smartphone OS is a hard sell

,----[ Quote ]
| Amid all the talk last week of a "groundbreaking"
| partnership between Verizon Wireless and Google,
| word of Microsoft launching its revamped operating
| system, Windows Mobile 6.5, and Verizon introducing
| one of the first smartphones to run it, the HTC
| Imagio, largely fell on deaf ears.
|
| Not that I'm surprised.
|
| The Verizon-Google partnership is a big deal. It not
| only ensures Google's touch-screen Android operating
| system will make it onto cell phones nationwide, it
| finally will give consumers a worthy alternative to
| the Apple iPhone and AT&T.
