What will happen to Windows Mobile?

So after using my Zune, I asked myself why MS can't make a phone this stable. I thought it the natural order of things for the two devices to merge. What I was not expecting is that they would just add some apps and a phone to the Zune and that would be the future.

Does anyone have any insight as to the roadmap for legacy windows mobile?
  • Does it just die?
  • Do they maintain two platforms?
  • Would the business community embrace a device list the new version?
  • Is development on the new platform limited to XNA?
I know there are other threads that discuss this, but I am looking for comments from those in the know, not a bunch of MS bashing. I have spent a lot of time building up expertise on this platform and want to know if I need to start again.

I love what I can do with my WM phone and am worried that the only other place I can have this level of flexibility in the future will be with Android (which I like BTW).

Thanks for your thoughts,

Ninja
