Microsoft is way too late to the game of competing with the iPhone. They shouldn't have wasted time, money, and resources on 6.5. They should have just focused on 7.

No, but handset technology continues to innovate and evolve in need to catch up to the iphone. the goal I think for handsets is to make them marketable and usable as well as cover up many of the flaws windows mobile has (see 6.1 and htc)

If you don't think microsoft is not in planning with these phone developers about changes made and marketing you're dead wrong. I'm definitely sure they are.

Windows mobile 6.5 is a huge necessity to at least wet the whistle for wm 7 because not all devices will ever run the new OS
but there are handsets that can run wm 6.5. Heck you can even note that wm 6.5.1 is made to run capacitive touch screens AND wvga that much is evident. The era of QVGA is gone and I'm sure VGA isn't too far behind. These standards, WVGA, capacitive touch is the future of wm. Should they have focused just on 7? Yes I thought so initially but it is pretty smart they didn't

qvga is almost dead =/
it really is dying out and fast most devices are starting with vga with 2.8 in screens...
the touch vogue was a great come back...2 years ago!
in fact I am not the only person that thinks qvga is dead
