But as desktop pc consumers are cash cow for microsoft, they are the biggest hope for microsoft for device market. But till now they are not quite in race. Android gained 5.2 percent of the U.S. smartphone OS market between December 2009 and February 2010 All these OS coming in with incredible features[^], and really hard to choose the best. What do u think who will grab highest market share, android/Iphone or underdog WinPhone7?

Symbian :rolleyes: No really it's just too soon to have an opinion if you ask me. There's nothing stoping a new OS or manufacturer+os to come on and take the lead. It's just too young of a market. I would not take out nokia or microsoft just yet. On the long run that's were my bet is. :)
I used to think.... Finally I realized it's no good.

me too. but if android/WinPhone7 smashes in and people like them, there is no grantee nokia will not switch over, like, Yahoo! News reported that Sony will align with Google to run Android on its upcoming gaming smartphone

Definitely not WinPhone7.

Hi Shahriar, I really think you have to "break out" the potential markets for these upcoming smaller form-factor devices that mix phone, video and still cameras, and computer capabilities ... from their typical previous modalities by upcoming modes of use: a. entertainment broadly defined to include what we now called "social networking:" listening to music, watching videos, networking, tweeting, texting, facebooking, myspacing, linking-in, etc. perhaps "gaming" deserves a whole niche of its own here given it literally monster-size role in what people are actually doing on-line and off ? or porn ? or on-line gambling ? b. access to vital news related to investments or activities with a direct bearing on your income, business, stock markets, currency rate, etc. access to what you need to know. c. access to corporate databases for information critical to your work away from your desktop. this would include, perhaps, using the smaller device to do inventory update by scanning bar codes, or reading records. so: two-way traffic there. d. for reading : e-books, access to news, casual surfing e. e-mail for purposive reasons (i.e., not tweeting, social threads). That's not to imply a broad spectrum of people may not use many or all of these features, but more a hypothesis that when certain "required" usage modes pre-dominate, criteria appear in a much more highly defined form. Security, or "environmental ruggedness," are criteria, imho, that depending on the context, may eclipse most other factors. For me: developments like .NET, the "resurrection" of JavaScript via jQuery and other libraries, the upcoming HMTL5 whatever, WikiPedia, CodeProject, StackOverFlow, next-generation Search Engines, and fantastic resources for on-line research in almost any area of literature, humanities, sciences, history ... far eclipse, in importance, the "hardware" they are "incarnated" in. May the best OS win: but, how will the judges be comparing Miss Android to Miss WP7 to Miss Palm ? To Miss IosX ? The "swimsuit contest;" the "talent contest" ? By the voluptuousity of the "eye candy," by what you can do with touch/gesture only ? For a while I believe a critical factor will be as simple as "battery life." Bias: I am an old curmedgeon who does not want a mobile phone with net capabilities, or to ever be in a job, or lifestyle, that requires one, and all of us baby-boomers are going to die off soon enough :) Speculation: by the year 2020 we will know quite a bit more about the nature of consciousness

That's going to be my next 'word of the day'... Now if I can just think of a way to use it in conversation.
