Sure, but they missed their window to launch a new product category, and will be trying to compete with Android and its giant app library on day one.

Android is not having that much luck on anything besides phones, tablets are being slowly eaten by detachable laptops with good old Windows on them.

At least that is what I observe from the local dealers around my me.

So from that point of view Win32/UWP is also a giant app library.
