They should have some installed base considering that .NETCF team and the Samsung OpenGL ES driver team are both based in India (for good/worse quality).

well…dont know about Microsoft’s Windows Mobile thing (which i think is a bit of fluff)…the Xbox has won real fanbase from gamers because of two things –

1. cheaper (though not very true if you buy new since PS3 has dropped the price) in terms of games, modding and so on

2. SERVICE!!!! MS’s warranty policy in India for Xbox is AMAZING! they do not extend such services even in US!!! It’s literally pick-up-and-replace at your doorstep if it goes RROD…

Both of your points say the same thing but you're right. It looks like it could just be a mistake and i hope it'll be corrected soon.

I agree. I mean so what? How many manufacturers are using Windows and how many are using RIM and iPhone technology? Is it REALLY that surprising that Windows has the lion's share?

and yet more bullshit posted on wmpoweruser.com
nowhere in the original article did it say that WM is outselling bb and iphone by 200-300%. that's a blatant lie.
nowhere in the original article did it say "installed base and sales Windows Mobile was 3-4 times larger than RIM or Apple." that's a blatant lie.

the original article said:
Both in terms of installed base and market share, we are three-four times of our competitors like RIM (Research in Motion Ltd, which makes the BlackBerry phone) or Apple (Apple Inc., which makes the iPhone) in India.

INSTALLED BASE AND MARKET SHARE.

NOT SALES.
you need to learn the meaning of "installed base", "market share" and "sales" before you post such bullshit.
