Future of Windows 8 bright as touch reaches market
The figure was released by Tami Reller, Microsoft chief marketing officer and chief financial officer at a press conference in the US to provide an update situation of Windows 8 and what’s coming next.
“Since launch, apps momentum has been steady as the number of apps in the Windows Store has increased 6x. Over 537 million visits to the store with over 250 million Store apps downloaded in the first six months, and almost 90 per cent of Windows apps catalog has been downloaded every month. Comparatively, that’s already passed what iOS had in store, in its first year of app development,” she said.
“In addition, the number of certified devices for Windows 8 and Window RT triple to 2,400 and base on Microsoft commitment, customer can see more and more touch devices come to retail."
