The Race for Third Place: It’s Not Android or iOS, But, Windows Phone That BlackBerry 10 is Competing With

September 6, 2012 by Robb Dunewood 11 Comments

The Roman Empire was not built in a day.

The same can be said for Research in Motion when it was on top, Apple and iOS when the iPhone reached number one, and, Android now that it is top dog.  It took years for each of these platforms to best their competition and become the number one selling smartphone operating system.

I know that there is a lot of excitement and anticipation surrounding the release of BlackBerry 10 in Q1 next year, however, I have to admit that I am hearing some pretty lofty goals from die-hard BlackBerry fans that, even if BlackBerry 10 is to Android and iOS what Android and iOS are to the current BlackBerry OS, simply have no chance of coming true…

To make it plain, BlackBerry 10 will not take out iOS, Android, or Windows Phone no matter how good it is.  BlackBerry 10 has no shot at besting the iPhone or Android and will have it’s hands full competing with Windows Phone for 3rd place.

Windows Mobile To Be No More: Microsoft Changing Name Of Windows Mobile To Windows Phone

July 30, 2009 by Robb Dunewood 3 Comments

Word on the street is that presenter at a recent Microsoft event let it slip that the name Windows Mobile is being changed to Windows Phone.  I recently posted this on Twitter, but, I’ve gotten so many directs and emails asking me about it that I figured I would write a post.

I originally heard this on the Inquirer.net and it is being echoed on sites like Mobile Crunch.
