Microsoft really has to start completely over with their mobile OS... That's why they are taking this route.

Unfortunately they are about 2 years late. After dominating the industry for the better part of the last 10 years, they have become an afterthought. Sure Windows Mobile 7 will make a big splash this year but it will take huge misteps by Apple and Google to get them back on top again, which doesn't seem likely.
