There is a rumor that only 503 kins (including kin one and kin two) were sold from which it is clear that that the handset was a complete failure. This has made Microsoft to with held their project.
This may look unreal, but John Gruber from Daring Fireballs has said that he got this information from one of his friend from Microsoft.
Pocketnow has released some other information which states that, the kins were especially made for social networking like Facebook, etc. This Facebook application is made only fort the kins and thus it will show information of number of active users of the Facebook for a month. When analyzing that information, there were nearly 8000 active users, which mean that the mark 503 is not correct. Either 8000 or 503, it is really small.
Business Insider had announced that even the Microsoft’s employers are not satisfied with Microsoft. This is evident when we take a look at the blogs of Microsoft’s employees. Mini Microsoft is a blog where Microsoft’s employees would chat regarding various issues in the company. One employee said that, all the decisions made were based on politics and not logical. Another employee stated that, the release of kin mobile is a complete failure and lots of money and smart people’s time and knowledge was wasted.
Microsoft is now having hard times due to the failure of kins. They will have to make sure that their Windows Phone 7 does not face the same problem as like that of the kins.
