This might sound naive but it is a serious question.
Wouldn't it have been the best way for Microsoft to get a hold of the mobile market by buying Opera then "updating" people's apps to a new version which would be "Edge for Mobile" ?
As it is, Microsoft has practically zero imprint on the mobile browser market.
Would there be any problems with my proposed approach?

I guess not. http://www.informationweek.com/mobile/mobile-devices/microsoft-opera-partner-on-phone-browser/d/d-id/1298210 http://www.informationweek.com/mobile/mobile-devices/microso...
- martin-adams 11y agoIn a similar vein, I think that Microsoft should consider writing a Windows UI layer for Android getting people used to the Microsoft ecosystem on mobile, while allowing compatibility for Android apps.
