The VGA thing has more to do with cost vs. mass production. The main problem with VGAs is that they are expensive to produce and manufacture.

I don't see any mention that Crossbow will be anymore "VGA friendly" than regular WM5 but I think we'll see more VGA devices as costs come down yet still plenty of QVGAs. OTOH, the Smartphone version is supposed to go up in resolution (they were below 240 in some instances).
Very true about the price of VGA screens. And it would be silly to make a OS "QVGA friendly" right now. It's just with the new 3D icons and the new today bars, a VGA deice will give them more depth.
