It doesn't matter. By the time it comes out, Windows Mobile will be effectively irrelevant.

Would be nice to see.... especially as Office 2010 beta for mobile is out, I'd like to see an OO for android though at some point which would be a good competitive edge for android in the business area

Gah! Why do Microsoft always do such stupid things.

Haven't they learnt from the debacle of Windows on the desktop?

Business users also like music. Some home users generally also want/need some of the "Professional" or "Business" versions. At least with Windows 7, there is a single line, with increasing functionality, not two parallel lines...

Office Mobile can be bought from the marketplace if your device does not come with it (2010 beta is also out atm) so I can see this model working.

I'd like the option of what you get though, for instance if I don't want media player I don't have to install it, possibly something like the live essentials pack works well, or you have an option to mix + match some choices for a device

And if you get a "professional" Windows smartphone, but you like Music and want the "Zune Experience"? :?
