Why we haven't built a ZunePhone

A lot of people have been hyping over TCTMNBN's iPhone and Palm's Pre. And a lot of people have been asking why we haven't made a ZunePhone. Well the answer is that the Zune isn't big enough (yet) for it to be worth it. Lots of people use Windows Mobile and while plenty of Apple fanboys hate it, many people love it as well. Also, TCTMNBN will probably agree with us here at Microsoft that the BlackBerry has an awful interface. Windows Mobile beats it easily. So for now, there's no need to build a phone that nobody will buy. Besides, unlike Palm, our business plan here at Microsoft is not to copy everything TCTMNBN does. So, does everyone understand that.

PS: The Zune HD is a first step towards a ZunePhone.
