The latest global figures give WP7 1.6% of the market. Even Bada has more at 1.9%, and Bada is at least rising. Serious WebOS devs would gladly take free stuff

Serious WebOS devs would gladly take free stuff, but likely not bet on WP7.
- rbanffy 15y agoWell... If Microsoft decides to give free stuff, I may give them my attention for free too.
- Steko 15y agoIt's a good thing we didn't write off Android in mid 2009 when they had 2% of the market. Note: I'm not saying WP 7 will lead the world in 2 years. I am simply pointing out that market share 2 quarters after your first device launches isn't the best measure of future success.
- dragmorp_ 15y agoThe 7 means version 7 not 1. Just saying...
- rbanffy 15y agoI'd rather say Microsoft, with versions 1 through 6.5, learned how not to make a mobile OS. WP7 is a radical departure from the Windows CE kernel. WP7 is to WinMo 6.5 what NT 3.1 was to Windows 3.1. With a better user interface (NT was as bad as 3.1)
