Before the iPhone, we were content with stylus-based interfaces that worked well - mostly - for what you needed to do. Then came the iPhone. From a pure feature perspective, it was (and is) lacking, but it more than makes up for it by being a polished product that's easy to use. The iPhone shook the entire industry up, and while newcomers have done relatively well (webOS, Android) Windows Mobile is now so far left behind you can barely see it any more. Windows Mobile 6.5 is supposed to be the first step towards modernising Windows Mobile - but it fails miserably.

If they get to interesting things, I think we will be seeing it in v8, not v7. What we will see in v7 is something that looks and behaves like the Zune, with WPF/Silverlight-esque application environment. That will make WinMo not quite so embarassing compared to everyone else, but it is hardly going to be revolutionary.
