@ richwhite: MS is trying to 'buy' their way into the mobile space(and eventually mobile computing). It is good for them, it is their money. Whether it will work due to tech merit or by "BS", that will be difficult to say. Personally, I don't see them winning on Tech merit with their WP7.

WP7 is a 'few' months old, but MS has been doing this(as in pushing into the mobile space) for years and it should have been well polished after all these years.
