Admitted, there is no one central store for all of WM at the moment, but that's due to the relative openness of the platform - you're not dependent on just one ecosystem or distribution point. http://www.wmexperts.com/lies-damn-lies-statistics-and-apple Doug, happy with his ATT Blackjack II Interesting comment about that numbers game over at wmexperts: They don’t count the thousands of “Palm Classic” apps that run on the Pre, and they don’t count Windows Mobile at all.

I bet there's an equilbrium, a smaller market than the iPhone's that can still be comfortably profitable, especially with the iPhone's reliance on AT&T. Many people are reluctant to make the move to a new carrier. Who says they need to be “the best”?
