Yes, that priority is Windows Live services.
Microsoft is more worried about Google than RIM these days.

IMHO, the idea is that ALL OS's including competitors should run MS windows at least in parts and pieces, this way MS hold it's hands on ALL of the Software market. "Rules the world" so to speak! Twisted Evil

I agree that Microsoft has been neglecting Windows Mobile but I disagree that this is evidence of said neglect.

I don' t think that this is representational of windows mobile having low priority. Microsoft has long been a provider of technology solutions and the exchange protocol is just another one of those solutions. This is not the first technology that Microsoft has allowed to be ported to another platform.

Also wasn't Microsoft faced with a law suit some years ago for not licensing Windows protocols? Would licensing the Exchange protocol in any way constitute a stance opposite to what Microsoft was said to have prior to the case?
