Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 07/01/2010 09:31 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]
Gizmodo reports that Microsoft discontinue the Kin according to sources close to Microsoft
Microsoft's official statement on the matter, for what it's worth, is vague but telling:
"We have made the decision to focus on our Windows Phone 7 launch and we will not ship KIN in Europe this fall as planned. Additionally, we are integrating our KIN team with the Windows Phone 7 team, incorporating valuable ideas and technologies from KIN into future Windows Phone releases. We will continue to work with Verizon in the U.S. to sell current KIN phones."
