Another Microsoft marketing blunder. Spend millions on decorating Southern Cross station in Melbourne for an operating system that's going to be adopted by everyone anyway, but don't bother to spend the dollars in releasing the MP3 player, which is up against a giant seasoned player vis a vis the iPod, in other countries with the same amount of advertising. It's good to see Microsoft doing research, but why on such things as where to release the player and how? I work in retail, and I've got to say, those things are pretty trivial, quite the Captain Obvious, or that's what I would have thought. Sigh.
