Yeah, this is a pretty interesting situation. I'm not sure that Microsoft would really take this approach. I think the media is really jumping on the idea that Microsoft has to copy and mimic everything that Apple does. The iPhone has a long way to go before it's a competitor to any of the Windows Mobile devices. Plus, Microsoft is trying to converge all their phone devices into one platform. Why would they create another platform for this?

Who knows....
