Microsoft’s App Testing Lab For Their Windows Phone Marketplace

Just out of idle curiosity, how many apps are in Microsoft’s Marketplace app store? I can’t tell since apparently you can’t get to it via their website without a Windows-based phone. Unlike that other company.

“Coming soon! You will be able to shop online from your PC using this website.”

They’re late, but they are working on it.

Looks like there’s about 271, assuming no over lap, counting the number of apps in the categories.

With all the money in the world.. This is what they come up with?

sad.

Microsoft, you’d be better off cashing in your chips and walking away from the table.

It is amazing how they totally fail at every commercial spot they attempt… why is this? No matter how many times they try. Mac shit kicks ass…that affords them the opportunity to be funny in the commercial spot. Microsoft still needs to prove their shit even works…so stay away from the “funny” attempts and just make great stuff… history proves it will sell itself

#3 Well, you got the “mac shit” part right

Microsoft is a comedy act.

It’s funny watching them trip over their own feet again and again.

They ought to fire everyone in the company and just sell Windows, Office and the XBox as they currently exist and bank the money.

That’d be far less embarrassing than everyone watching the Zune, Bing and all these other flopzoids sputter around.

The zune is actually quite a nice product. its not the juggernaut that the ipod is, but that doesnt make it a bad media player.

Now I know where Microsoft’s Songsmith came from. I guess every once and a while an app gets out that shouldn’t.
