  1. Nice stuff, I don't think now windows have any chance to get phone market however if lion is resting it doesn't mean that he tired or failed, he's waiting for correct situation.
    And if we talk about android and iphone so iOS has it's quality and android has too.. But as 80% phone market is being covered by android day by day, seems iOS will be surrender very soon.
