no, I don't think you made a mistake...as of the past couple of years...smartphones are becoming more popular, and the companies are meeting the demands. The devices are rolling out in shorter periods of time, and there are more hardware to choose from. Not to mention M$ is finally getting off their collective butts to play catch up with the rest of the mobile world.

You should think how much of a bleeding edge (way past the cutting edge) person you want to be when it concerns your phone. Do you want the latest and greatest?? then you're looking at upgrading practically every year, if not every nine months.

The TouchPro2 is already yesterday's news with the rolling out of the HD2, Nexus One...and now we're hearing rumblings of the HTC Supersonic. You can be sure that when Windows Mobile 7 rolls out (hopefully) next month, that there will be a slew of devices that will ship with it installed by XMas time.
