Yes and no, microsoft said they will still support it but it is obvious their focus is elsewhere.

Simply put yes...they are probably keeping it for the business community, until they cook up a new business version..but at this point they are after iphone crowd.

I doubt..many will end up switching platforms is my guess or keeping wm6.5

[*]Is development on the new platform limited to XNA?

XNA, the .net platform and silverlight

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).

There won't be any flexibility with windows mobile anymore, even if a new business version is made next year or whenever its had to see it happening. Android isn't bad but still has a bit to go to catch up..that said microsoft is starting from scratch so no matter how you slice it android is a more mature platform as it stands.
