You've GOT to be kidding me!

This isn't intended to be critical of Joel Evans, but - does Microsoft REALLY think this is important?! We've waited 2+ years for a mobile OS that people can USE, and THIS is what they're touting?

Microsoft must see their market as the kids now happily using iPhones. The're NEVER going to get those customers. Their target audience, IMO, are business users who need integration with their offices - apps, docs, emails. IOW, current Blackberry users and MAYBE some Android users. The ONLY thing Microsoft has going for them right now phone-wise is their ability to leverage Office and Exchange. Concentrate on that - build a mobile extension of the office - and people will come. NOT games! Sheesh!
