And the market now has expectations that prevent serious OS innovation such as form factor constrained by a user's pocket or purse and an overall UI experience that demands consistency across devices. MS was smart to offer Halo etc which definitely is a distinguishing feature, but obviously not enough to cause a groundswell. IMHO MS is going to need a *big* difference point like reliable speech-to-text or a really smart agent (not like that awful paperclip) to create enough zing to cause mass migration. JMHO.
