One other thing. The MS stock price is high. I never said it wasn't. But I don't think Windows Mobile has much to do with it. Compared to their PC Operating system and Office packages, etc... Windows Mobile is such a small small percentage of their business.

Again, you fail to miss the point on the stock price.
Microsoft has to answer to shareholders like any other corporation. No matter how high that stock price is- if the shareholders thought they could be making more money (either through higher stock price or higher dividends) if Windows Mobile were scrapped, then you better believe shareholders would demand that it be scrapped. And you would be seeing shareholders and analysts call for it right now.
The fact that nobody is calling for it- the people who are either maiking or losing money on the decisions are fine with it, means it is NOT in trouble.
