no disrespect to HTC - they make good, not great phones - but they are a HARDWARE maker
not a software difference maker. Their software initiative has hit a dead end.
Their software is already LOCKED OUT OF iPhone, blackberry and soon now Windows 7 Phone.
What's left?
Hooo-rah!
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see they'll be paiting themselves into a small corner... limiting the HTC Experience to non-smart HTC "feature phones" and htc-branded android devices within 9 months. That is pretty steep odds working against them for a major software initiative with no chance of "marketplace" revenue.
And you all know the "pink" stuff is essentially zune feature phone so once WP7 ships microsoft can easily leverage that market too - against HTC.
