IF that is the future of the WM platform then it's going to be a dead platform!

WM5??? There's been very little change all the way back to WinCE3.0. MS is obsessed with maintaining backward compatibility, a frequent flaw in my book and diametrically opposite Apple. The biggest change in WM was the addition of the phone app in WM2003. I would venture that the second biggest change IS 6.5 with it's changed start menu, Titanium and kinetic scrolling. MS has stated that 6.x is the end of the road for the current WM buil and WM7 will be a total re write. I think it will be too little way too late to put WM back at the front of the pack, but that remains to be seen. You're comments about 6.5's instability is way off mark too. We're dealing with unsupported leaked beta code here and considering that, it's amazingly stable and complete . As for anyone missing your point? You have to make a clear one first for it to be missed!
