Where were all the Santa trackers

[johnmcd348]

Ok, so I found myself a little disappointed yesterday. I was away from home for awhile and my son asked me where Santa was in case we'd missed him. So, I went to NORAD Santa and couldn't pull it up due to needing either Java or flash. I don't know. So I went to marketplace to find an app and there were 2. Both.99 and neither one very good. Fortunately my wife was able to get a free app on here that worked well.

Now, am I wrong in thinking something like this just goes to show a lack of support for the platform? It's hard to sell people on this platform when all the others can pull out apps that we really have no comparison for.

Agreed. Bummed out there wasn't a good one.

I can understand that it's pretty much a gimmick app and 1 time use but, The lack of Flash and Java support kinda shows a weakness to a point. Microsoft is so hard set that HTML5 WILL be the standard all others will follow, they're cutting off their noses despite their face as it were.
