Windows Phone Thoughts: Sales Slowdown

IDC recently reported about the continued slowdown of PDA sales. Worlwide handheld shipments were down 10.7 percent for the last quarter. The interesting part of the article is the analysis of why sales are not taking off: "Analysts have attributed the steady decline to a lack of innovation, which is limiting the reach of the devices and restricting growth beyond the enthusiast crowd that handhelds currently cater to."

I agree to some extent. Price reductions have had a higher priority the last year. These reductions are nescessary, but now I am looking forward to see the pace of innovation to pick up.
