articuno1au Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Just a question (not making a point with this beyond the result of the question): What ground breaking changes came with 2.3.4 of Android (3.x is TABLET BASED. Not the same thing) and IOS 5? Also, Mango is due out in the next 6 or so weeks at last tell. I don't deny that WP7 lags behind Android and IOS, but I don't think that it's insurmountable. I'm a steady user of the platform and I think it has legs. I'm also a developer and it works well so far. I wish there was more API access, but it's got legs.

Gaffney Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 This is the opposite really. iOS interest is dropping, Android is rising but so is blackberry falling. So people aren't as interested in an iphone or a blackberry so then all those people have to choose between Android and WP7 really. WP7 as a whole will jump when they get more phones. What about some actual sale figures ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
articuno1au Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Microsoft ALWAYS hold these numbers close to their chests. They hate giving out this kind of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Neo Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Six months later and Windows Phone 7 still doesn't support Dutch, the only mobile OS on the market here that lacks it. For a company the size of Microsoft the Windows Phone 7 launch strikes me as anything but professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a company the size of Microsoft the Windows Phone 7 launch strikes me as anything but professional. Which is in a planned update. To the best of my knowledge, Windows Phone is not even meant to be available in your market place. Microsoft ALWAYS do this. They release, make sure it works, then expand functionality. Dutch is due in Mangos, along with Swahili. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
