I think there is room for three great smartphone platforms and I hope Windows Phone isn't one of them. So I'm rooting for RIM.

- mark_story 14y agoWhat's actually wrong with Windows Phone other than it came from MS? From what I've seen of it, its a well designed well executed mobile OS. You can't really say the same of the recent blackberry os releases.
- btipling 14y agoBecause that's just one more smartphone OS that will never support app development from anything other than their own creator's platform, i.e. Windows and Visual Studio or Mac OS X and Xcode. The world doesn't need this horrible, closed-system, innovation killing, walled gardens crap anymore.
- mark_story 14y agoThat's a totally fair point. Sadly I think iOS' success just compels other manufacturers to follow suit.
