Windows Mobile aka Windows CE was made to run on embedded devices, it was not originally targeted at phones. Microsoft simply cannot throw away more than a decade of development and software compatibility. In my opinion, they will slowly morph it into a more "finger friendly" & "on the go" OS. Otherwise they will make tons of software obsolete, scaring away developers, manufacturers, and other vendors.
I actually like that windows mobile is much like my desktop in terms of capability. However, I wouldn't mind some iPhone like usability features added to Windows Mobile.
