<p>&nbsp;<img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com//wpt/auto/1331246440.usr681.png" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>Today Microsoft sent out an email to users stating that on May, 9, 2012 the Windows Mobile 6.X Marketplace will no longer be available. &nbsp; &nbsp;The email reminds users that their apps will continue to work even after the marketplace is shut-down. &nbsp;However, there will be no updates, so users are advised to download any updates to ensure the best operation. &nbsp;Also this is a sad thing, this should come as no surprise. &nbsp;Many felt let down when Microsoft redesigned Windows Mobile and released Windows Phone. &nbsp;The stripped down Windows Phone may have been a disappointment to some, but others (myself included) felt the change was necessary and for the best in the long run. &nbsp;Hopefully those users and developers of Windows Mobile will continue to support the platform now that the transition is nearing completion.</p>
