The
end
result?
As
said,
FIVE
&me
more
sales
of
our
WP7
app
vs.
our
iPhone
app.
So
how
can
a
well
wri5en
iPhone
app,
with
great
reviews,
featured
by
Apple
and
supported
with
marke?ng
efforts,
perform
so
much
worse
than
the
exact
same,
equally
top
rated,
app
on
WP7?
How
is
this
possible,
given
Apple’s
market
share
in
smartphones
(and
compared
to
MicrosoI’s)?
The
answer
is
quite
simple:
Apple
has
500.000+
apps
on
the
App
Store
compared
to
only
30.000+
on
the
Windows
Phone
Marketplace.
The
poten?al,
in
terms
of
devices
in
the
market,
of
the
App
Store
is
huge
compared
to
that
of
the
Marketplace
but,
at
the
same
?me,
there
is
fierce
compe??on
and
a
LOT
of
noise
in
the
App
Store,
making
it
extremely
difficult
to
stand
out.
6. WP8,
Why?
• Very
fresh
new
way
of
thinking
the
UI
• Android
is
kind
of
“rip-‐off”
from
iOS
• Fits
nicely
with
MS-‐Ecosystem:
Windows,
Office,
Outlook,
SkyDrive
etc.
• Lot
of
people
already
in
this
ecosystem
• Companies
probably
will
buy
WP7
phones
instead
of
Android
and
iOS
(MS

• Easy
