I guess they didn't have confidence in their own product to compete with iOS and Android.

I don't know much about WM7. But I remember when N900 was only announced, WM7 was not miles away from release, at that one great gentlemen passed remark on Wm 6.5, that "it is the begenning of SLOW DEATH of Windows Mobile".

Few months before purchasing my N900 I was having a general talk about mobile application development and said the same phrase and my project manager replied that WM 6.5 is a Crap but WM7 will change the entire history of Windows Mobile
