家园 【原创】CE cost and Windows Mobile

1. ce授权费用, 100元左右。实际ms是出售m8获利最高的厂商

Ce core:~US$3, pro:~US$16

CE core has nothing other than a basic OS.

CE pro has wordpad, windows messenger, media player. CE5 pro you can get office viewers(excel/ppt/image/pdf/word) from M$ as a plus with extra cost. CE6 has removed them totally, they have to find 3rd party solutions for office viewer->other cost. If the spec is as Wong claimed, they have to use CE6 pro plus some 3rd party softwares. Forget the phone capability, it must be more than 100. Phone part is not easy at all as I said before. It normally means much much more development cost than a player. Further, on US/Euro cell phone market, operator customization requirements, certification requirements (FCC/CE/GCF/PTCRB....) are normally meant tens of millions of US investment before the product can be seen in the market. Can they afford this? I doubt.

I believe: M8 is possibly a lively media player in china and/or oversea. If the quality is acceptable, I wouldn't mind buy a few.

By the way, Windows Mobile 6(still Windows CE5 based) has improved a lot on user experience. It's not that bad as you said. My HTC Universal has been damaged so I'm using a HTC Wizard (released in 2005) but upgraded to WinMo 6 with spb mobileshell (everyone uses WinMo phone should try this little shell. The free features are good enough. You don't need to pay to $30 to get the full license).

I like it.
