I don't think I'd describe this as "making the leap" - I have a published TouchPad app, and I was curious about the upcoming Mango/WP7.5, so I emailed about the WebOS->Windows offer - basically, I got an email back with a list of resources to explore to build a Windows Phone app. Not sure what the followup is going to be. There's nothing really free about it - my dev environment is OS X, so I'd have to get a copy of Windows 7 ($100 from Amazon), install it in Parallels for the Mac ($60), join Microsoft's AppHub ($99/year), all to get (maybe) a free WP7 phone. Also, from what I can tell, there's zero overlap between WebOS and Windows Phone 7 development, so all these WebOS devs would be starting from scratch. Frankly, I'm kind of surprised that Google's Android dev relations team didn't make a similar offer.
