Still, thanks for the reply... it's strange that no one knows the answer to this or has bothered to ask Microsoft.
You may be correct about the purpose of Standard, however I can say that my Samsung Jack is probably the useful and stable phone that I've every used. And up until now I've always WM Pro (since Ipaq 3600). Granted I've always had an Audiovox, Startrk, or Pantech Duo as a backup

I am curious as to why the percentage of their 20m is relavant to this topic or success of WM. They are all licenses at the end of the day. Is your point that only WM Pro devices are competing against Apple?

Personally I think the Standard phones should be put up against Blackberry devices more often. Apps seems to be RIM's achilles heel but no one every states that there are plenty of good apps for WM Standard.
