iOS and Android aren't serious operating systems for users, since they lack key apps including:
Internet Explorer (the most popular web browser)
Microsoft Word Mobile
Microsoft Excel Mobile
Microsoft PowerPoint Mobile
Integrated Skydrive
Microsoft Outlook Mobile
Microsoft XBox Music
Microsoft XBox Movies
It's difficult to see how those two operating systems can succeed as serious computing platforms when they're missing these basic apps.
Now, I know, lacking official apps like these results in "wannabe" apps of poor quality, like Safari or Chrome or OpenOffice, but let's face it... users want the real thing. Without these apps, it's hard to take iOS or Android seriously.
