From my admittedly limited understanding of how these things work, it seems like MS is coming to the slow and painful realization that if Windows Phone 10 doesn’t make a dent on the mobile devices market dominated by iOS (Apple) and Android (Google), they might have to give up the ghost on Windows Phone.
Might as well try and start optimizing revenues from the well entrenched and matured OSes. If you can’t fight ’em, join ’em, I suppose.
