| disolitude said: I don't know. Android tried this with Honeycomb it was a tabled based OS. Microsoft is trying to bet on both horses (arm and intel)... I don't think Windows Phone 8 would give them the flexibility they need for a tablet OS and certanly wouldn't work for apps since Windows 8 apps and Windows phone apps are not shared. You buy on Win 8 you also buy on RT...win phone is a seperate beast. |
True, but honeycomb was just a stepping stone to get to jelly bean (a full solution for all screen sizes) which is also becoming the solution for GoogleTV.
Also true that win8RT was solely for arm while win8 was for x86... but they already had winphone for arm. I think they would have been better off making sure win8 could run on arm AND doing their best to bring winphone8 and win8 under similar umbrella so apps flow accross.
Someing iOS and Android also need to do in regards to their Mac and ChromeOS platforms.
