Ok, we’ve all heard by now that Windows Mobile has fallen significantly as the operating system of choice for Smartphones. One of those reasons is clearly the ever popular Android-based devices we have all been hearing a lot about; and wanting.
Problems at Microsoft can clearly be seen when:
- Motorola’s decided to not include Windows Mobile in the 2010 lineup of devices and instead focus on Android.
- Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer recently told analysts that, ”It was a tough year on succeeding with phones, mostly our own issues, frankly.”
- Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft’s entertainment and devices business, admitted to problems with Microsoft’s mobile strategy in a meeting with financial analysts and investors—reporting that Microsoft’s share of the mobile phone operating system market had declined.
Have these types of setbacks caused some of the current rounds of job cuts at Microsoft? One might think so as it seems Microsoft is losing ground within the mobile arena. Regardless, Microsoft has unfortunately laid off 800 more employees.
