No more firefox for winmo..and proof development is dieing

Ok so we know Adobe abandoned winmo after wp7 announcement and now mozilla

http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/m...ile-wont-offe/

Why did M$ announce early it won't be app compatible..its like they plan to kill winmo 6.5 on purpose..sigh

Re: No more firefox for winmo..and proof development is dieing

Firefox isnt being developed for win 6.5 or 7,
does that mean winmo 7 is dying?
This is just politics b/t huge software companies...
mozilla wants an ndk before any further development...
msft is probably trying to keep this a tight platform at launch for minimal crashes / bugs / etc and this will open the doors as things dont break - also with the whole eu ballot thing, this might be their way of saying f.u. to mozilla too.
Oh and mozilla wants to develop for winmo 7 (idk bout 6) as they see it will be a solid platform for the future or mobile smartphone os's

I think they are talking Microsoft on mobile phones...
Desktops/laptops Windows still reign.

But as far as smartphones go, yes Microsoft will always have a presence but they are pretty much close to being a 4th rate player in the market behind Blackberry, iphone, and Android.

Windows 7 mobile will make a splash but considering it's a total reboot from 6.1 and 6.5 this will just give former Microsoft users another reason to check out other platforms.

I don't think Bill Gates works with Microsoft anymore. He owns most of the company but doesn't work there. He retired, and is now working on a non-profit

you took the words out of my mouth.

on another note, didn't adobe stop development because WP7 is right around the corner or did MS say they would not allow flash support ala iphone and RIM?

I hardely think that development for winmo is dying, just development for an old almost dead platform is dying (a platform that i love very much by the way).
