I don't know if you guys have thought about this, but....

Windows Mobile 6 = Windows XP
Windows Mobile 6.1 = Windows XP SP2
Windows Mobile 6.5 = Windows Vista
Windows Mobile 7 = Windows 7

That's their goal, I bet. Windows Mobile 7 and Windows 7 are going to be like 2 peas in a pod. And from here on out, MS is probably going to keep both on the same level.

By the way, if you disagree with WM6.5 being Vista, read this:

Microsoft has ALWAYS gone the Major/Minor route with OS's.

2000 - Major
ME - Minor
XP - Major
Vista - Minor
[Expected] 7 - Major
I'm not sure I agree with much of your post, heh. That's great and all that the 7's lineup and perhaps that part is intentional. However, what about Vista is Minor? It was a complete overall from XP. If anything Vista is Major, and Win 7 is Minor, as in, it's very similar to Vista.
