Microsoft Mobile Strategy â Clear as mud?
,----[ Quote ]
| So weâve moved on from Windows Mobile and
| today we are consuming Apple and Android
| based phones with a veracious demand,
| equalled only by the amount of applications
| developed for the platforms. I think that
| the key to a successful mobile product it
| todays market is a diverse catalogue of 3rd
| party apps and (at least) perceived complete
| customization and personalization of the
| phone for the consumer. Todays world seems
| to have (in many cases) the mobile phone
| being a creative expression of its owner, be
| it ringtones, wallpapers or anything else.
| The article on the Kin posed the question
| that firstly a phone allegedly designed for
| a social generation seemed to lack some key
| features, but also to me the personalization
| of what was touted as being a âsocial phoneâ
| was not part of its feature. The Kin also
| brought up the issue that it was another OS
| that Microsoft had developed for the market
| and it doesnât appear to offer support for
| either the upcoming new Windows mobile
| platform nor the older version either.

Wandering eyes: Windows Mobile users show lack of commitment
,----[ Quote ]
| A Nielsen Co. study about mobile phone usage
| got lots of attention over the weekend for its
| insights into the battle between Apple's
| iPhone and Google's Android. But the report
| also includes some interesting data about the
| rest of the smartphone market. And once again,
| the news isn't good for Microsoft's mobile
| business.

Skype drops Windows Phone 7 support
,----[ Quote ]
| VOIP AND CHAT OUTFIT Skype is sending out
| confusing signals regarding its support, or
| maybe lack of support, for Windows Phone 7.
|
| Earlier today Dan Neary, Asia Pacific VP and
| general manager of Skype, said that the firm
| decided not to support Microsoft's upcoming
| Windows Phone 7 Series operating system.
| Neary justified Skype's decision by saying
| that the operating system had a "lack of user
| optimisation and partner support."
