It makes it difficult to market the phones that way. This is one of the reasons General Motors is paring down the number of brands they have. It was simply too difficult and expensive to advertise for five varieties of the same friggin' product. No matter how good your Saturn Astra is, if no one has ever heard of it, it won't sell. So... next time you're out & about, ask a stranger if they know what a Touch Pro is. Better yet, ask if they know the differences between a Touch Pro & a Tilt.
If Msoft were to really take something out of Apple's playbook, it should be brand management. At that, Msoft truly sucks.
very well stated there friend, they really do need to pick up in that aspect for sure.... wm beast out the powerhouse in palm and no one would have ever thought they would do that... than they got comfortable since no one was touching the smartphone game and than came along what we have now
if they didnt get comfortable and evolve at a slow pace rather than a swift one they would have been able to advertise and promote... now they have fixing to do and they are going to have to WIN over the wm fans again to get them to come back or stay so i think they will advertise more once they get the name image cleaned up which they have been doing pretty well lately.
