Re: [libreoffice-users] MSO for iPad, big deal or big yawn

Hi :)
A friend showed of his brand new Windows Phone and about a week later
grumbled that it had already slowed down and even given him a BSOD
type thing.

Getting onto Android makes sense, porting to iThings shortly after
would be great.  Windows would be nice but Android is the main one
imo.  Yes being as unprepared for Windows phones as MS was for Phones
and tablets to take off at all would be dumb but Android is the
top-seller by such a huge margin that it really needs to be the focus.

Windows might be free but even so, is it really worth even that much??
Regards from
Tom :)
