I just tried to download a Netflix app for my phone from Microsoft. You have to be a MS Live user to download this. Strike one. I have an account from the PassPort days because of my MCP logins so that is not a really big deal.
I signed in and it took me to a screen to confirm that I am who I am. This sucks but whatever I uncheck all of the garbage about "please send me info on......" and click next. Well, strike 2! you have to sign up for some kind of SPAM in order to get to the next screen. I did not. I will not. This is worse than having to have iTunes installed for your iPhone. At least iTunes does not spam you I don't think.
To get around this I think, hey, this is for a mobile phone let me try this on my phone. I did the google search and found the same site and low and behold, it does not work on their own antique browser! Strike 3!!! You can't even write a web page for your own @$#%@%@ browser? Really? The download did not work from the phone either.
The moral of the story is that I may look into getting that iPhone after all. I will have to see if it can do RDP, eWallet, and Call Log 2 Contacts. Maybe we can look at the Palm Pre.
