They are programs I have enjoyed for years and not being able to keep the products I have purchased specifically for Windows Mobile is quite a turn down for me.

Other platforms just have not offered the power use that Windows Mobile has offered and it seems that, at least for now, Windows Mobile will no longer be moving in that direction.

I was not even considering changing platforms but due to this change I may consider looking at Android or others. Sad to say the least however changing markets mean changing business practices. Oh well eh?
My point exactly, with Android no matter what carrier you move to, no matter what version of Android you have, no matter what device you have in your hand and as long as you have your Android Market login info you can still use your apps. And no you won't be able able use any of the apps you may have purchased for windows mobile 6.x with windows mobile 7, numerous windows mobile and electronics news site that have covered windows mobile 7 has said so.
