What options are out there if you don't particularly want to use OS X (…or Windows) and can't use Chrome OS? (real question)
The most common would be Linux, if the applications are there for you.What options are out there if you don't particularly want to use OS X (…or Windows) and can't use Chrome OS? (real question)
Yeah. Some, and their experience are not good. Same for android.WP already had very competitively priced budget phones. It seems he suggested selling below cost.
It's the sad fate of dead-end platforms, sadly anyone who still owns a Win RT tablet around here knows how that feels (and it's like yet-another stab to the heart, too).After installing Windows 10, I have been frequently hunting through the Windows Store for apps, but there just aren't any good ones. And now another one is getting the axe - pretty sad.
Do you have to pay a fee sending money like that? I haven't used PayPal in a long time.The funny thing is that until I read this story when it came out earlier today on another website, I was unaware of Paypal having an app. I mostly use it to send my daughters money and the web interface seems fine for that. maybe this will get me to look at the app (probably not, but maybe).
I remember they did a ton of advertising for their phone, guess that didn't pan out very well for them.
Can't remember when I last used it...The PayPal app on iOS does LESS than just going to their website. I downloaded it and tried out all its features. It's a joke. I don't know why they waste their time with it. The website is mobile optimized and works perfectly.
They might as well dump the iOS app too while they're at it. I deleted mine.
You installed Windows 10 Mobile? Siriously? Because that's, you know, like what this thread is about.After installing Windows 10, I have been frequently hunting through the Windows Store for apps, but there just aren't any good ones. And now another one is getting the axe - pretty sad.

I travel a lot and I had regular problems with Paypal over the years because of that. Paypal recommended me to use their mobile app and indeed since I switched these problems are gone. I also like the APN telling me what's happening with my account.The PayPal app on iOS does LESS than just going to their website. I downloaded it and tried out all its features. It's a joke.

you pay a fee if you use a credit card, but not if you use a bank account.Do you have to pay a fee sending money like that? I haven't used PayPal in a long time.

The biggest idiot in the world. This is a classic.What Steve said:

Too bad since the Windows Phone had some promise early on.
I always thought they should have just given the phones away at a huge discount to flood the market and get a foot hold then concentrate on the flagship models.
It's a banking app. It is normal that they don't distribute it there if they just won't test it for FireOS.Pulling support for Amazon Fire devices is interesting considering it is just a heavily skinned version of Android and most standard APK's work just fine on Amazon devices. If they are continuing support for Android, why stop distribution in the Amazon App store?
You know by the end of 2014, Microsoft actually had some good (considering the chokehold iOS and Android already had) marketshare numbers (~10%) in a number of markets over Europe and other parts of the world. Their numbers were coming up in most other places and front line App developers were starting to show up. They were close to making it big enough to be a sustainable platform - but it was all dropped at that point & between the executive change and the "we've got to throw it all over the side and rewrite based on Windows 10", Microsoft development of existing WP just died and over this last year it all spiraled down the toilet.
Saying that as a iOS user, but kept an eye on how Microsoft was doing from a market perspective. But now they have totally abandoned any idea of a viable consumer smartphone market (Paul Thurrott, Mr. Windows, was talking about that the other day). Seems like fire sale prices on 950's are coming.
It was obvious since Nokia announced they were going Windows. If normal people can avoid Microsoft, they will.
More so for Nokia fans. Even more for European Nokia fans.
