Houdini's amazing prediction thread

[Houdini]

Microsoft will release a multi-purpose cell phone next year.

I'm taking bets.

[The artist formally known]

Duh, but it'll be a phone with buttons and maybe a touchscreen. huge and brown.

[Feynman]

They don't need to seeing as though they already own most of the smartphone and PDA market with Windows Mobile.

Why brown?

[Daddy]

Only if they some one do a handheld gaming device/cell phone combination.

Zune?
Xbox 360?
Keyboards & Mouses?

They're not all software.

Why wouldn't they branch out? They've already proven that they're willing to do hardware.

They have Windows Mobile so they're going to keep improving it rather than making another smartphone.

But they don't make their own smartphones.

Yeah.... so what's your point? If you're just trying to fuck with one word in that post, you're an idiot.

Making their own hardware would draw more attention to the software, plus they seem to like doing whatever Apple is doing.

don't hate on the MS. Sure, nearly everything they make is crap, but come on, Bill Gates donates to charity.
