Have you ever noticed that there is not 1 commercial for a WM Device? Amazing right? Just imagin how well HTC and other WM devices would be is they commercialized them...instead the carriers just publicize their Dumbphones: I.E. Sprint's Instinct, Verizon's Storm, Alltel's Razr, and AT&T's iPhone

I think its tough for WM to actually market a device since there are like a million different phones which support the platform. MS move to increase the minimum hardware requirements for a WM7 phone is a smart one. If they can limit the amount of phones running WM7 that are on the market, they will be able to advertise more universally; and consistency in WM7 devies will be universal across the board. Granted, we'll have less phones to play with, but the one's we will have will all be phenomenal and on par with each other, (no more will there exist drastic differences between WM devices such as the TP vs the Mogul on WM6.1).
And yeah, I know sooooo many people who think that the iPhone was the first phone ever to support a touch screen.
