I love how in their official statement from the Microsoft support forum that you linked, they essentially throw their entire consumer base under the bus except for those 18 select phones. I can't even believe they took away the app altogether for older functioning phones? Why would you do that when it worked perfectly for these people just 2-weeks ago?

You know that as soon as WM7 comes out, those remaining 'select phones' (ie Touch Pro 2, HD2, Omnia 2, Imagio...) will all be the next to go out the window in terms of support.
