Microsoft to launch competitors to Apple's MobileMe and iPhone App Store

When Apple unveiled MobileMe as "Outlook for the rest of us", it was obvious that Steve Jobs was aiming at the heart of Microsoft. When the iPhone App Store became a runaway success, it was obvious that Microsoft could not longer be satisfied with their Zune. The question was, how long would the Windows Behemoth wait to respond. The answer is here. The question is, will their new "SkyLine and SkyMarket" products be true competitors to the Apple iTunes behemoth?

And, of course, the other question is whether these two products run on "SkyNet". (If you don't get the reference, may I suggest a movie download?)
