Because the Touch Pro brand has always been associated with Windows Mobile 6 Professional. They certainly can do it if they want, but I wouldn't expect them to transfer the brand to a different platform. And WinPho7 is basically a different platform. My hunch would be that even with WinPho7, they'd brand it differently even if it has a similar form factor to the TP2 (i.e., the keyboard style). And I'd be shocked if they carried the name over to Android. So yes, I do think that they will drop the Touch Pro brand if it's not on the WM 6.5.X platform.

Just my opinion though! Only time will tell what they really do.
