6.2? Doubt that. AFAIK, MS went directly from 6.1 to 6.5.

My past 3 devices have been running WinMo, so up until recently I've followed WinMo closely. I can say with certainty that support for WinMo devices doesn't differ drastically. My Palm Treo 700w was purchased with WM5.0 and never got an OS upgrade. My HTC xv6800 came with WM6.0 and did receive an upgrade to WM6.1, but nothing past that. My HTC Touch Pro came with WM6.1, and also never got an OS upgrade. The HTC Touch Pro 2 came with WM6.1 for most carriers (6.5 for AT&T) and did receive an update to 6.5, but will most likely not get 7. Only recently has there been more focus on getting official updates to WM out to devices, because the OS has fallen too far behind the competition. WinMo definitely has had very much community support bringing unofficial updates to popular devices, and the same is more than possible with Maemo.

Yes, Apple Loves You. Microsoft Loves You.

Sometimes this forum astounds me.

Apple cares about being different, and they do pretty much to guarantee that. Also they have quite a bit of money behind them, so they can easily make some features free to keep fanboys happy. Kinda like Google was able to just march out and drive Tomtom etc. into turmoil by offering free turn-by-turn navigation, Apple sort of did that to the mobile phone industry with iPhone way back, but since then have just been keeping to the original design.

This is just an opinion, don't hold me to it
