How long should vendors provide software support for phones?


Once upon a time, I used to write a lot of stuff about Apple. Slowly, it seems, I’m turning into a Microsoft writer instead.

Perhaps that’s because Microsoft keeps announcing things, like today’s reveal of the features — and requirements — for Windows Phone 8, which led me to ponder on the whole issue of how long is reasonable for a “smart” phone to be supported anyway over at the ABC’s Technology+Games portal:

Windows Phone 8 announced: Fail and win
“Microsoft’s announced details of its next smartphone platform, and there’s plenty of good news on the power front – along with one bit of very bad news.”

Now, can I go lie down and try to kick this stupid head cold? Perhaps I need someone badder than myself to beat it…
