Can you read the subject line? This thread is about a big M$ fail caused by not backing up critical data. This is not a forum for America bashing. Latest news on the Danger front is that M$ is digging itself even deeper there... "Microsoft's Pink phone project may be on the verge of falling apart even before its first product ships, according to a controversial set of leaks supposedly confirmed today." "Microsoft has poorly managed the project and squandered the acquisition of Sidekick creator Danger from 2008. Rather than implement Danger's advice, the larger company has watched the majority of the team either fired or leave in frustration as the majority of their advice is ignored." "Among the errors, Microsoft is said to have been too ambitious and tried to develop both CDMA/EVDO and UMTS/HSPA of the Pure and Turtle designs alike, not realizing that each needed different chipsets and antennas that would dictate fundamental changes to each; it had also tried to simply ask the key hardware partner, Sharp, to build based on the renderings rather than realistic goals" http://www.electronista.com/articles/09/10/09/ms.pink.and.danger.team.at.risk/ ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
