[QUOTE=mahrkpat;270869]If you were a app developer would you spend your time developing for a mobile
phone os that is going to be outdated in 18 months time? If you were buyer
would you invest in a phone that in 18 months will have no support for it?[/QUOTE]

I will answer yes to both, why people get the new iphone for so many money when they know that in less than a year a new model much better will come? because technology moves so fast and what today its good tomorrow will be yesterday old news. you cannot bet on the develop of a os mobile in the future cause now something new came up but win survived all this time for a good reason and they can may it with mobiles too.

Re: win phone 8

I do think you have a point kostis, but I for one can not afford to change my
phone every year therefore if I can keep on updating my phone via software
upgrades (free) then that is the phone for me, this also means I am doing my
bit for the environment.:D
By removing support I think that M$ are planning to charge for upgrading to a
new OS for the phone, not that many people throw away a phone just after a
year's worth of use.

Did someone ever check windows phone repartition by country ?

I always had in mind Japan ,where people have those special phones (not apple or samsung phones).
Europe have a iphone monopole .For russia ,I really don't know.

Re: win phone 8

I suppose in Japan the phones are someone experimental , as that is where they are often launched. As for here,uk,my experience is that most phones are Android, iphone or BBerry , I see lots every day and only see about 1:30 that are win phone.
