12 Jan 09 Ballmer Likes the iPhone Now, but No Zune Phone Was Announced
I bet you were not expecting Ballmer to say nice things about the iPhone, were you? Well Ballmer told the Financial Times that both the iPhone and the BlackBerry have “clear market momentum” in the smartphone business. Remember what Ballmer said about the iPhone and Apple a year and a half ago?
Well Apple did certainly well, even better than Microsoft some might say, in the mobile business in 2008. What will 2009 bring? Certainly not a Zune Phone. That’s what Ballmer also said. The device’s core might be integrated in other Windows-powered mobile devices but a Zune Phone won’t be manufactured. Disappointed? Happy?
