So what is your point? If Windows was such a brilliant mobile platform would anyone care about the iphone? Maybe Kleiner Perkins should rethink their 100 million dollar iphone apps fund???

in addition to Windows Mobile, they also market Vista and Zune, both also-rans.

The guys at MSFT need to focus on executing their core business and stop chasing Apple and Google.

I upgraded my iphone to the latest ver2 software and now it does not work at all. The phone fails to activate on the same sim that I was using since i bought the phone in March this year. I live in South Africa and my local network provider is MTN. Is this a common thing with the rest of the users outside US?
