Hey! Where is the flag waving smile?
Doesn't this sound eerily similar to PALM back in the very early 2000's?
"Oh, MS doesn't know how to do phones, plus our OS is proven, millions of people love us, thousands of free and very modestly priced 3rd party apps - yada yada - look at me, big 800 pound gorilla sitting on the hill..."
I seem to recall posting something very similar years ago to Palm at that time - Where has the competitive edge gone? Who is leading with bringing out new iniatives?
It sure ain't you MS...
UGH!
So anyone want to guess how long it will be before HTC puts out an HTC Touch Diamond & Diamons Pro on the Android OS? 2 years?
Seems to me that would be a very logical business move for HTC; they already had a great deal invested in to "fixing" the User Experience on WinMo so why not take that experience, port it over to a FREE OS and build in a little bit of a killer set of applications to really knock MS off the block: Sync to Outlook, Lotus, MS Office readers and BOOM... Why stay with MS again?
Steve ought to be VERY afraid... or maybe MS just doesn't care to loose the mobile space...
