HTC got delayed access to Win8 due to customization, I doubt if Nokia can do that

According to GSMARENA HTC an old, good and bed-mate of Microsoft have been shaft in "axx".

By been by delayed access to Win8 due to HTC's wish to customize Win8 using their HTC Sense.

Now Microsoft as usual is saying HTC does not make and sell enough Tablets, but we are seeing a a lot of firms that have never even sold Tablets displaying their Win 8 Tablets during any Win 8 shows. Some even claim they would have Tablets ready when Win8 is launched.

Now this makes me wonder if all of Elop's talk about Nokia having access to customize WP7 and Win8 is just one of his flabby talks he says to get away and convince people that Nokia would eventually customize WP7 and Win 8, when all that Nokia does is write apps and sell in the Market.

hmm only tomorrow would tell if Elop is lying or jiving us.

Microsoft would NEVER allow deep customization of WP7/8. Custom apps, maybe, but reskinning is definitely out of the question.

It's not the WM6.5 age anymore, Microsoft wants a unified experience for everyone buying potatos.
