As i'm concern, Microsoft has lost their credibility to deliver solutions that integrates well and works each time you connect something. Microsoft came up with great things in the past, even they they were not the best implementation. Now, they are trying to sell us the integration Windows Phone 8 or Surface Tablet Windows with other Windows platforms. Their history is not great. I personally remember Windows Mobile and all the headache even between their own products,
Now, Microsoft is coming up with a me too solution. Working with IOS more than 2 years, Microsoft has a lot to do to catch up IOS in terms of integration and reliability. I also have clients where the end-users are managing their own IOS devices within a framework. No IT support. Isn't that great! Not sure at all those end-users would be able to do it by themselves with Windows 8 variations unless they are very advanced users.
