Does anyone realize that history is repeating itself now? Microsoft is following what Palm did several years ago. They (Palm) were the leaders and sat on top of their rock convinced that they would continue to lead despite not producing any major new deliverables while their competition (mainly MS) continued to refine and eventually over take them.
So now what do we have here? MS content with what they produced and watching while others begin to eat in to their market share.
I don't think I'm going out on a limb here but it won't be long before HTC realizes that it can bundle/create a handset independent of MS and deliver everything that MS Windows Mobile 6 does today - and then more - for FREE.
Windows mobile will still be around - it will fight for space with the blackberry but will loose the casual user space to the iphone and android - that is a HUGE marketplace now and it's only going to get bigger.
That's what I think...
