Windows Mobile Users Complain About Upgrade Policy

,----[ Quote ]
| While the answers a Windows Mobile executive provided to questions posted to
| a Facebook discussion provided very little information, the questions posed
| by 55 fans hint at what users want in the mobile platform.
|
| Aaron Woodman, director for consumer experiences for Windows Mobile, invited
| anyone to submit questions about Windows Mobile on a Facebook page. When he
| began posting answers more than two weeks later, his most common response was
| along the lines of "nothing to announce."

Why Windows Mobile Is In Trouble

,----[ Quote ]
| Recently it was revealed that the newest version of Microsoft’s mobile
| operating system, Windows Mobile 7.0, would be delayed until as late as 2010.
| The updated version, which the company’s partners had reportedly been hoping
| to have by early 2009, was aimed at giving Microsoft a bigger presence on the
| mobile stage. But delay or no delay, I don’t think it would have been enough.
| With competition from a resurgent BlackBerry platform from Research in
| Motion, Apple’s iPhone and most importantly, the Google Phone platform (I
| will analyze Nokia’s Symbian platform in a separate post at a later date),
| Microsoft’s mobile platform is facing its toughest environment yet.
|
| [...]
|
| Sometime later this month, the G-1 will go on sale and people (at least those
| in the U.S.) will be able to experience the difference between a Windows
| Mobile- and an Android-based phone for themselves. Of course, some will find
| the shortcomings of the Google Phone — and according to Mossberg, there are
| many — grating. Others, like me, will be suitably impressed. And if they’re
| impressed enough, most handset makers will want to join the party.
