If you want to nit picks -- I wouldn't even consider 6.1 a major upgrade, so the numbers are even worse. Apple typically releases 2-3 interim upgrades each year, beside the major annual update. Even Google has been releasing updates quicker than Microsoft. It goes back to my old rant - It has been very obvious that Windows Mobile has not been a priority to Microsoft. They are the largest software company in the world, if they wanted to release updates quicker they could, it's just a matter of throwing more resources at it. However, for whatever reason it has never been a priority.
Instead we continue to get incremental upgrades that don't always address existing shortcomings, and even these incremental upgrades take FOREVER. I still imagine that the WM dev team is comprised of about 2 people - a product Manager, and 1 programmer. With both crammed in some basement corner on the Microsoft campus, trying desperately to meet the demands of it's customers, yet knowing it's just too much for any one person to handle.
