Ueber, I use a phone to reply so sorry for not quoting, but your CE statement is incorrect. This is windows mobile.

If you click the market share in 2007 they had 42% market share, and that's the same year the iPhone came out, which caused a decline for MS handsets.

Also, your wrong about Windows Phone atm. The only thing holding it back is apps. Otherwise there isn't anything you can't do on it. Also, I read your smartphone rant where you were mad about background texts yet Windows Phone has the ability to go in and change your background tasks for apps. I go right into my settings and pick the app list and hit disable background apps. Easy.

The biggest obstacle to Windows Phone are carriers and sellers. I'm not kidding you when I took my girlfriend to get a windows phone to a best buy and employee asked me how to use it. He said he went through the training but didn't pay attention. This is widespread, people just don't see or use the handsets thus market share won't come until people are educated and familar.

Consumers buy based on value, not trendiness.... lmao. Dude, stop projecting yourself on the proles.

Microsoft has absolutely zero hope of breaking into the mobile market. None whatsoever. It is nothing more than delusion to argue otherwise. This will be a resounding failure, and in a year, they'll write down the value of the acquisition by at least 60%. It's a shame because Nokia has excellent carrier penetration, but they'll lose it because MS produces shit products for mobile.
