So the logic is 'MSFT would be willing to effectively kill Windows Mobile if that's what it takes to launch their own phone, because Windows Mobile is so far behind already' If MSFT do indeed do this then I would applaud them. Too often legacy products / business units get in the way of innovation, as that innovation has the potentially to cannibalize the legacy. The question that remains is: has it taken MSFT so long to get to this point that they are already too far behind? I'd guess not - they're well practiced at coming from behind.
