The latest Microsoft mobile operating system (Windows Phone 7) for phones is set for launch on the 11th of October and one wonders whether there is room for another operating system.
For Kenyans the distinction is clear, as the cost of data is biassed towards the blackberry platform, business and cost conscious users opt for Blackberry. iPhones are gaining momentum, more so because of the Apple 'sexy' factor and Android is just beginning to scratch the surface especially since it's app store doesn't really support purchases in Kenya.
But windows mobile has been the platform for choice for IT administrators due it it's core integration with parent Microsoft products.
Will windows phone 7 be of choice in Kenya? - we'll have to wait and see but the carriers have the most important role to play to ensure a level playing field for all mobile phone platforms.
