I think you get used as a peer according to their F.A.Q. :

I thought so too. But then I went to an amazon aws introductory bootcamp and the evangelists told me that as long as the email you subscribe with is different, you can use the same credit card and you're good to go :)

Has anybody ever read "Quelqu'un d'autre" from Tonino Benacquista? This directly stems from an invention in the book.

I wonder if the product does exist or if the website is just a placeholder plugged to a google analytics account to check if there is any traction. However I think they are for real since the domain name must have cost a lot.

I totally agree. Work would be relevant if I enjoyed it.

Crazy. I really would prefer working 4 hours max each day. Or achieving the 4-hour workweek. That and work from home at first, then everywhere. :)

lol! True. I meant that they won't throw in the towel like HP did with WebOS devices. Even if the sales of the devices do not take off, they still can force manufacturers to produce Windows Phone devices, I am quite certain that the manufacturers they threatened to sue in the "Android maneuver" got a better deal if they accepted to produce Windows Phone handsets in the future. My tuppence worth.

The apps will come and they will be better designed.

I do not know if anybody here has tried the Microsoft developer tools but they are more advanced than anything even Apple has.

Expression Blend for example is something Android developers need badly. I hope that with Adobe letting go of Flex that Google is going to poach a lot of their IDE team like they did with Chet Haase.

What they are missing was a more open API and a more in your face marketing attitude. Nokia will bring that to the table.

Microsoft has deep pockets and they need to be in mobile to stay relevant (even if they earn more money suing Android manufacturers). You next phone will be a Windows Phone.
