> I'm afraid your link merely shows the misguided point-of-view
I agree that it is MS's point of view on this topic. We're going to have to disagree that it's "misguided". IMHO Jeff Atwood was right on the mark in that essay, and it applies to this case.
Will it be enough for MS and for Windows Phone in particular? I don't claim to know. Would swapping over to android help? Unlikely, once you factor in the loss of face involved. Are others like Google doing it better? Probably.
