Wink How Microsoft could have overtaken the Smarthphone market....

I'm a Windows fanboy and probably will be for a long time. If and when Windows Phone 7 (or changes, I might go back but after having the pleasure of using the Epic and Android, it is obvious that Microsoft dropped the ball big time with Windows Phone 7. Plain and simple, Microsoft's slogan for the WP7 should have been as follows:

"The simplicity of the iPhone with the versatility of an Android."

The problem is, they only followed the first half of the idea but did not complete the second half.

I believe Microsoft Windows Phone 7 will be a distant 3rd (or 4th) for years to come until they adapt to today's market. I really hope they do, Windows Phone 7 is a good product, but it could be a GREAT product if Microsoft had a greater vision....

Even if Windows iPhone 7 rises to 19.5%, it still has a looooong way to go to get to the top.....

Anybody can make "plans" but until they follow through with a product, Windows iPhone 7 will be in last place. I don't pay for the plans, i pay for the product!
