Hopefully not.
If yes it will make me really angry.
I've invested in UIQ and it's gone.
Now WM...
However I wouldn't be so sure. Windows 7 may be good.....
It's also
very hard for me to believe they will forget about raising income from
mobile devices.

I don't like the Windows Mobile or Windows Phone, so I don't care. WM is slower than Android so I'd prefer Android phone.

I doubt it will happen, especially once WM6.5/7 comes. but if it dies i hope microsoft could develop a new one to replace it with much better resource handling and offers the same level of developer friendly environment. Even palm OS has died long ago but was revived with the new WebOS.
