Zune was canceled, uncanceled, and canceled again within 24 hours, IIRC. Microsoft has introduced and killed at least two different mobile DRM platforms and is now on their third. Windows Pen/CE/Pocket/Mobile/Phone has been re-org'ed so many times it's dizzying. And of course there are the Kin and Sidekick fiascos, which still count, even if you would prefer to just dismiss them. So yah, I think it's fair to be cautious when it comes to Microsoft and their mobile strategy. While the current Win Phone thrust is definitely the strongest showing they've turned in yet, their track record in this market stinks. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
