This is interesting. Had the luck of camping with Bing's director of engineering while in Olympic. He talked about how Microsoft realizes they're getting destroyed on hardware by Apple's direct control over design and manufacturing and the quality that comes from that. So they're aggressively going after stuff like this. They've already got Xbox going strong, they're trying with Surface, and now they've grabbed a phone manufacturer. Fiel, I don't think you'll be waiting long for Surface in a phone/tablet package.
But the marketing... Microsoft should acquire a stellar ad firm.
