MS seems to be taking a vertical approach with hardware and user experience, It has fixed for 7 Series devices like a specific CPU ,speed, screen aspect ratio , resolution, memory, and button configurations
Its is also doing away with carrier or partner UI customizations such as Sense or TouchWiz.
MS here seems to doing a Apple again .
The Challenge here for MS would be that every Hardware Provider would like to have it's different Specs for differentiating it's product in the market . Apple Makes it's own hardware so it's different for them . A GIANT like MS seems to be out of it's own strategies and seems to be following Apple.
It's also be very interesting to see how MS goes about developing APPS for its devices. Will it accept open source developers of and Third party Apps or will it be rigid with developing Apps on it's own .

Also in a recent development Nokia has acquired Symbian and declared that it's going Open Source. Wow ....
Mobile Operating System Space has never been this interesting before. Looking ahead to a great 2010 in Mobile OS Space.
