Windows Phone dies today
- nkkollaw 9y agoI really loved the UI, but there are no apps! What good is a smartphone with no apps? Of course they're being boycotted by Google and others, but no Google Maps, no Google Inbox, and other software that I use many times/day.
- dethswatch 9y agoNo, it died when MS decided to hobble its API in their thirst to get anything out the door. 3 months after release, it still didn't have major UI components released to devs. A year later, they still didn't have it worked out with the phone companies to do OS updates. A year later, and I _still_ couldn't add my own ringtones. This was 2010. The last phone that I had that couldn't do totally custom ringtones was 2003.
