The amount of apps in the Windows Phone Marketplace
Microsoft's Windows Phone Marketplace has now reported to have passed 25,000 apps by one site tracking comings and goings within it. (source: WindowsPhoneAppslist, July 2011)
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
I posted this in the other Acer market share article, but it was already flooded by comments at the time so I'll post it again:
"Wow, I can't believe how much ignorance there is on a site like Engadget over the quality of Acer products. Check out the latest reader surveys in PCMag. You can view them for free (although you have to register). The subjective reliability rating of Acer/Gateway is just as good as Dell, Toshiba, Lenovo, and better than HP (which has been tanking in recent years). Not only that, its percentage needing repair is 12%, which is lower than Lenovo (22%), Dell (23%), and HP (19%) that so I would quit perpetuating your outdated opinions. The only companies that had better reliability based on those 2 metrics are Asus. Sony, and Apple, and they are often in a difference price range.
With respect to build quality, please go to your local store to check out the laptop section of the HPs, Acers, Dells and Toshibas there. The latest few Acer laptops I checked out were cheaper, faster, and used higher quality plastics than the HPs in the same price range. I don't know what laptops you guys have been looking at lately. I just bought a gateway and the internal components are what you find in any other laptop. It also runs cool, which isn't something I can say for my last laptop that HP decided could handle a hot AMD processor fit into a tiny space."
Oh yeah, the Gateway NV series laptop I bought it was called the best budget notebook by Laptop magazine.
