"An additional 20 Microsoft Windows Mobile 6-based handsets will be launched before the end of 2007 and global shipments of Windows Mobile-based devices are expected to top 20 million units in 2008, according to sources at Microsoft Taiwan. With the recently launched Windows Mobile 6 platform, Microsoft's share in the global mobile devices market is expected to double to 20% in 2008 from the current level of 10%, said Eddie Wu, managing director of Microsoft ODM embedded devices, Asia. Wu made the remarks as the software giant officially launched its Windows Mobile 6 OS on June 26 in Taiwan."While this sounds like an awful lot of devices, it's still small fry compared with a global market that swallowed a billion phones in 2006 alone. I'm also a bit dubious about the 20% market share claim (what the h-ll is the global mobile devices market?). Nonetheless, the number of devices are increasing, and so is market acceptance - something to keep in mind as we enter the "iPhone era". :roll:
