I also see this as being a three horse race. Android will eventually end up in the #1 position. Apple #2. With RIM, webOS, MeeGo and Win Mobile 7 vying for the third position. Even now Blackberry Enterprise Server installs are falling. It won't be a single player that take RIM down, it will be the all the majors have good enough exchange and security support. I liked what I have seen so far of MeeGo but I am afraid it will only been seen as a less popular alternative to Android and will have the low market share to match. Until the changing of the guard, I just don't any new successes out of Microsoft. Besides it will be the next version of Windows Mobile that gets all the effort. There is a MS cycle enter market with a product better than all their competitors and capture a large market share, stagnate, half-hearted release, start picking things up, and release something good again. E.g. IE6 was better than everything else at the time, IE 7 was lipstick on a pig, IE 8 was basically a rewrite to have a better foundation, and IE9 might actually be good. This pretty much mirrows Windows Mobile 4 - 7. I see Windows Mobile 7 at the IE 8 level. Palm was some really interesting stuff and with the money of HP behind them I really don't see why they couldn't be number 3.
