Microsoft has come up with Windows 8 as a new OS that will change the way we interact with the desktop/laptop application...New features and functionality in Windows 8 include the following: Faster startup through UEFI integration
I believe that, to the extent that this happens, it will be in favor of on-site Azure and an App Model foundation in SharePoint On-Premise, not just in Office 365 and the cloud. The fact that Windows 8 is not winning the BYOD competition could be useful in this evolution
We have far more iOS devices, and for now, we are only developing apps for that platform, and when necessary, we will modify or create a SharePoint view to look nicer on an iPad. Windows 8 would make that easier, but I don’t see us moving to requiring Windows 8 tablets
By 2015, tablet shipments will be 50% of laptop shipments, with Windows 8 in third place behind Apple and Android
Oh, I'm not knocking the project manager-centric tools, or the drag-and-drop list interfaces, or the latest it-looks-just-like-Windows 8-live-tiles solutions
Yes, but it comes down to this, SharePoint won’t ever have a shiny free icon on your iPhone, iPad, Android, or Windows 8 device. SkyDrive does
If you’re going to point out that “ it will be easy if you just switch to Windows 8 devices across the board ”, I might ask you to think about that poor IT Guy (me) and his budget
It is important to enable these Apps on iOS, Android and Windows 8 based on the form factor (screen size) of the device

Many of the cloud file sync and share solutions provide different levels of support for Windows 8, iOS and Android, while support for all three OS’s is enabled in OneDrive for Business, which is the default file management product supported within Office 365
