Sad but not surprising. What did you think a huge company does, which always sold software as its core business?
Sad, because one would have thought that, since MS has to catch up in the mobile market, tries to offer an environment as developer friendly as possible. What's the reason to develop for WinMob now?
To me it translates to the following: If i want the biggest userbase and a good amount of money i choose the iPhone. If i want to be sure not to be rejected and have some freedom in general i choose android.
Now, if i develop for WinMob, what do i get? From the few sales i make i give 30% away (plus invest into development) and my app will probably be rejected because whatever reason some MS manager think there is. (note that those points are the same as for the iPhone, except that the iPhone has a huge userbase).
I just hope this business model will fail in the end, because it's awful, imho.
