Ballmer: No plans for WP7 in tablets?


WMExperts

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer is in Singapore today help promote launch Office 2010/Imagine Cup Awards Ceremony, nothing too surprising there.

Evidently Steve took some questions from the audience on Windows Phone 7, he reportedly had this to say:

We’re focused putting Windows Phone 7 phones, no plans tablets.

With cancellation Courier, uncertain future HP’s Slate the likes Bach and Allard leaving, what exactly is Microsoft’s strategy for tablet computers going be? We know WP7 can scale up large resolutions and evidently has robust enough DPI handle a high-resolution tablet.

So was he just being cagey or legit? It’s not like he would just announce Windows Phone 7-Tablet initiative such an offhand way. Then again, MS has made some boneheaded moves past, and not taking advantage WP7 + tablets could one them.

Speaking of shakeups, regarding the latest to the E&D division, he also reportedly said (paraphrasing)

There will not further changes in mobile and entertainment strategy after management shakeup

That’s relief. The whole web seems be crackling ‘WP7 FAIL’ predictions after yesterday’s news.
