@apere006 I've already written that Nokia and BB were incapable of competing on the OS level (and should have switched to Android) -
@monkbent Why didn’t they? Why did it take Microsoft so long and still have a less functional phone? Palm? Incompetence can’t be everything -
@apere006 I didn't say they were incompetent -
@monkbent Incompetent at competing on OS as developer platforms. The forced brevity makes thing more dramatic. -
@apere006 it's not incompetence. Neither was a computer company. It's like asking a typewriter manufacturer to compete with Windows -
@monkbent Microsoft was making phones too... -
@apere006 as I said in the article, Microsoft *was* disrupted, particularly by Android. The biggest mistakes are assuming one-size-fits-all - 2 more replies
