Battle Of Mobile OS Updates

Those were the good old days when Symbian ruled the world and all the people waited for the next Symbian version i.e. Series 60 v7.0 to 8.0 to 9.0 and 9.1,



The game changed when apple entered the market with Iphone in 2007. its not wrong to say that things haven't changed dramatically ever since, just a bit of extra added features in each iOS version, Apple announced the iOS 6 yesterday which will be the factory OS in there upcoming Iphone 5 expected to release in Mid September.



Apple will always deprive users owning old iphones of some features in order to make them buy new hardware, its Apple's monopoly & nothing new....



On the other hand Android's Ice Cream Sandwich is doing really well but at the moment there are still lots of devices waiting for an official ice cream sandwich update and the rumours of the next android OS Jelly Beam 5.0 are already in play.



Things are not going so well for Microsoft (& Nokia) , with iOS and Android taking over the world market, Windows Mobile number are not increasing at a pace they predicted, and you cant blame the numbers, Windows Mobile 7.5 have nothing spectacular to offer (limited App availability) apart from the Tile Interface which is considered disadvantage by some, They really need to speed up the process of releasing Windows Mobile 8 (AKA Apollo)



Blackberry is also betting all its success on the release of Blackberry OS 10 which will be announced in the 3Q 2012.....
