Marketcircle CEO dismisses Microsoft's "bad for business" iPhone attack as FUD
Marketcircle's CEO, Alykhan Jetha, has disputed Microsoft's claims that the iPhone is no good for business use.
Though some agree with Microsoft, Jetha has gone on record to say that the iPhone could be great for business, particularly small business.
According to Jetha, Microsoft are involved in a deliberate FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) campaign against the iPhone, because they're scared that Apple's superior operating system, OS X, will be an integral part of the new device.
"The one thing Microsoft seems to forget is that the iPhone has the multi-tasking Mac OS X at its core. Mac OS X already trumps Microsoft's desktop OS, never mind its mobile OS. You can already read MS Word documents with Mac OS X out of the box using TextEdit. As a developer, I can tell you the .doc reading capabilities are right in Cocoa. You can open PowerPoint documents in Keynote and I'm sure Apple has something up its sleeve for Excel," he writes on his blog.
He finishes by saying that the iPhone is the most important small business phone because more business users will use it because they want to, instead of being forced to.
I love it when independents endorse the iPhone.
