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.
but you're just speculating that just like most are (myself included)
the problem is that we still have no idea about WP7s until MIX

plus the code from sense...just doesn't substantiate your speculation at all. In fact, it detracts
