With Apple’s IOS still growing, but Android growing faster and increasing its market share of the smartphone OS market Blackberry and Microsoft are being left behind as (very) niche players.
See the Independent’s article here on the troubles at Microsoft with Windows 8. There clearly is some major alterations to the new OS that could impact on the costs of developing under the OS as well as hinder greatly its share of the smartphone market.
