Windows Mobile in its current state is a POS operating system. Android & Nokia have nowhere near the user base, development tools, or top-tier gaming/graphics capable hardware. Blackberry is a business platform and doesn't appeal to the user base my graphics/gaming apps are targeted at.

Windows Mobile 7 (if it lives up to the MS propaganda), combined with the new Zune and top-tier phones that will run it, will generate a large enough user base to be worth switching for.

I've developed Windows applications for the last 14 years (last 9 with my own company) and while I've never been a big fan of MS, I'll take them any day of the week over what I've experienced with Apple in the last 12 months.
