I'm just guessing but the 1 billion dollars they will be getting from M$ might have also helped them make the decision.

But what about HTC, LG, Dell Etc, they are feeling kind of stupid right now hitching their wagon to WinPhone 7 then Nokia gets an even sweeter deal.
Nah, they've got Android... It probably costs them little to add a Win7phone to their range... :)

I like my Zune. Didn't really give a rat's behind when it was first released, but my daughter bought one so eventually I tried it out then bought a used one of my own. Love it for podcasts and music and my youngest watches movies on it when we travel. I suppose when it dies in the future I'll just move on the the next thing... whatever that is. My wife is stating to ask about an ipad.

Looks like major trouble in Windows Phone 7 land too. Its user-base is pissed.

Interesting point of view from someone in the UK.

Could Windows Phone 7 eventually go the way of the Zune?
