Dont know much about pink but Danger offers pretty amazing set of interfaces for the young folks… I think Microsoft may be planning a 3 pronged strategy… WinPhone7 for the consumers, Danger for the ‘young folks’ and WinMo 6.5.3 (and later WinPhone7 for business) for enterprise.

It let Windows Mobile wither on the vine, as it concentrated all its resources on Windows Phone 7. But then, from left field, it develops another platform code named Pink. That means Microsoft has 3 different and incompatible mobile platforms. Where will the apps be for the Turtle and Pure phones? I wanna see apps.

As the article says, the mobile industry is already fragmented (with too many phone platforms). Microsoft’s own fragmented world of 3 mobile platforms is plainly ridiculous, will not be competitive against Android, and is doomed to fail.
