Should Microsoft kill Windows Phone and switch to Android?
2014-02-07 19:31:35| Extremetech
I've just had an interesting idea. What if Microsoft's new CEO, Satya Nadella, drops Windows Phone in favor of Android? This might seem crazy, given the amount of time and money that Microsoft has put into Windows Phone -- but desperate times call for desperate measures, right? Adding credence to this idea is the Nokia X (codenamed Normandy) -- a Lumia-style phone that runs Android. This mid-range phone, despite Microsoft's acquisition of Nokia, still looks like it's going to come to market this spring. Is it possible that Microsoft is waiting to see how the Nokia X does, before making a decision on the continuation of Windows Phone?

Apple should consider building an Android phone, says co-founder Steve Wozniak
2014-02-07 16:27:24| Extremetech
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has suggested that Apple might want to consider offering an Android-based phone, before it potentially suffers the same fate as BlackBerry. "There's nothing to keep Apple out of the Android market as a secondary phone market," said Wozniak. Woz seemed to be making the remarks in response to the fact that Apple might not be able to produce the next killer product that everyone expects, and that unless it can continue to innovate, it could go the way of BlackBerry, which was knocked out of the running far faster than anyone would've expected. Personally, I think hell would freeze over before Apple released an Android phone.
