I've been a Microsoft Developer since the early-mid 90's and I'm really disappointed with how Microsoft handled this whole debacle.

I've got a HTC One and its nearing its life end and I'm not certain which way I'm going, but its probably away from MSP.

I've never seen MS drop the ball the way they have on the phone project. I'm not a big fan Google and I'm certainly not an Auburn phone guy. Maybe the Luddite approach to phones and not have one at all.

I'm actually a fairly Pro Microsoft guy.

Heck, I liked Windows 8! Yes 8. Not 8.1. I liked the first iteration.

They dropped the ball on the tiny bit of momentum they had when they released the 920.

Not all of the problems have been caused by Softy. They can't force developers to make apps. Not sure who is at fault for a lack of Google apps.

Carrier exclusives have been a problem but it also might be carrier's unwilling to carry the phone without an exclusive.

I'm not 100% out but it isn't looking good at the moment.

And I still can't believe they are releasing phones on the 20th. My developer build still has plenty of bugs.
