I'm actually not sure what you mean by Windows Phone being a wakeup call ... ?

  I think he means that MS put their best foot forward for WP7 and it still didn't do that well. They're still in fourth place in the smartphone market, even behind the stumbling blackberry. Before WP7, they had not really tried very hard in the smartphone market (no innovation, windows mobile was just a poor mans symbian) so it was a no-brainer that they had not done well.

    OK, but I'm not sure what you can point to that they're currently doing that's a reaction to that. The products you're seeing now (Windows 8, WP8, etc.) were all put into motion before WP7 was released.

  It is a market (if not technological) failure so far.
