Main problem is the fact that Microsoft fails to incorporate the apps into the proposal, while they are working on their Windows Mobile app store, they seem to be unable to use that same app store for the Zune, saying it has a different focus.

Apple was just saying the success of the Touch is based on games, what’s the truth? Well I believe that the Touch selling 20 million times and Apple having one app platform for all the devices is a better guess than Microsoft is going for with the Zune. Because only a select few developers are allowed to develop apps for the Zune and they believe games are not very important to bring to the Zune.

Unbelievable!

“Originally, we weren’t exactly sure how to market the Touch,” Jobs told the New York Times. “Was it an iPhone without the phone? Was it a pocket computer? What happened was, what customers told us was, they started to see it as a game machine.

“We started to market it that way, and it just took off. And now what we really see is it’s the lowest-cost way to the App Store, and that’s the big draw. So what we were focused on is just reducing the price to USD 199. We don’t need to add new stuff. We need to get the price down where everyone can afford it.”

There you have it, huge sales numbers; iPhone sold 30 million units, Touch sold 20 million; both in the past 2 years, combined with its enormous amount of games looks to be Apple’s ticket in the big league of gaming. The new technology; iPhone 3GS and new iPod Touch, allows for even more impressive graphics and gameplay allowing designers to push the envelope even furthur.

Next stage? More processing power, augmented reality, and fully integrated social networking features. I believe the future has no monthly play in terms of call time in it, we just lease the phone of our choice and pay a flat fee for data.
