I read it, but you overlooked one thing. The development money that was spent on Symbian now doesn't go to Windows Phone, but it goes to the development of applications.

That still is a lot of money to be spent on applications by a very capable group of developers.

Regardless, feel free to post it. It will invariably overlook many variables and ultimately will just be an argument about something that neither one of us are in a position to claim mastery or intimate knowledge about fully.

I can at least admit that.
