Nokia blames Microsoft for poor Windows Phone app selection | |

FINNISH PHONE MAKER Nokia's VP Bryan Biniak has spoken out about the firm's relationship with Microsoft and has hinted that there might be trouble in paradise. Speaking with the International Business Times, Biniak said that Nokia is happy with the progess it has made with Windows Phone so far, although he noted that it will continue to struggle to compete against iOS and Android due to the continued lack of apps available for Microsoft's mobile operating system. Despite selling a record 7.4 million Lumia handsets in the second quarter this year, Nokia smartphones are still missing a number of big name apps, with the firm even asking Facebook to bring Instagram to the Windows Phone 8 mobile operating system. | ||

Unbelievable! Activewin has long posted negative news on Microsoft Windows and ignored a lot of positive news. This was OK since the negative news was regarding Microsoft's desktop or traditional technologies. Theres alot of that curtesy of the old WinXP/Vista days. But here we have negative Windows Phone news. There has been soo much positive Windows Phone news that has not been reported here. Like Nokia sold more phones than Blackberry to take the number 3 spot. That doesn't take into the Windows Phones that HTC, Samsung and Huawei sold. I know that Apple and Android still dominate the mobile market, I get that. But to step into the number 3 spot is no small task. In stead Activewin posted a false story about rewriting Windows Phone 9 from the ground up. Really?
The only thing I can conclude is that Activewin prefers to post negative news about Microsoft. Now back to the crickets. |

#1: I agree in that there aren't enough posts, in general. As long as its news, good, bad, or neutral, it should be reported on. No doubt a lot of positive reports have been missing on this site. ActiveWin has been asleep at the wheel all too often. Daily posts would be superb, of all the Windows news that's fit to print (on a screen).
We need more debates here also. The days of Latch vs. lketchum were fun. |

Due to a family illness I wasn't able to post last week.
When it came to posting today this was pretty much one of the top MS stories, again doesn't matter if it is positive or negative it'll get posted here. Roll on the new site so we can actually get more comments and discussion |
