Don't waste your time with WP7, keep your time to making softwares for Maemo & MeeGo

this is all about the commenters preferences. I know a lot of users who are fully satisfied only with the EA games, and another lot who are fully satisfied when they log on to their office365 with lumia....

for me that sounds like step 6/5 with maemo aka the step nokia couldn'n anticipate in 2005: cloud services.

When Microsoft eco system is big enough eco systems isn not important anymore. With apollo you will be able to compile C++ code for windows phones. C++ works on other platforms and it is easy to port apps. HTML5 is also something that will make eco systems less important.

WP before apollo will never get a good eco system. It is C# and WP lacks important functionality.

First WP cellphone to get their games, there is a difference. They are not the first cellphones to get those games. So that itself is a loss since other platforms have had those games earlier already. I bet the low sales of WP allows EA to do things like this in this partnership since convincing them to give up potential sales on other WP7 phones is not that hard seeing as they are not giving up a large market.

Doesn't matter because MS could still claim that as being sold. MS has been cagey about WP7 sales - they only seem to give out the number of units "shipped" rather than the number of units sold. And by shipped they probably mean the number of licenses sold to manufacturers, eg HTC buys a bulk license for 500K units, but has so far produced only 100K devices and have only sold 20 to end users (these numbers have been pulled from thin air for illustrative purposes only).

I thought the whole business with that Ovi crap was to do with "the cloud" and services?
