I'll have to agree with Marc, as cool as the Stinger platfrom is, it's not mainstream. People have a hard enough time with computers let alone PPC. This isn't a knock on Microsoft, people just don't have the cash and patience for a do all device.

For the operator, why would they choose a platform that causes them to lose money? They're still reeling from the money spent on 3G and that's the last thing they need.

I understand Microsoft's position though but unless they start subsidizing the devices, people will stick to their Nokia phone, which may infact eventually run Symbian OS.
