Today when upgrading a products codebase from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 I discovered that Microsoft have removed support for smart device projects in Visual Studio 2010. The decision to exclude support for smart device projects in Visual Studio 2010 appears to be a clear sign that Microsoft does not intend on continuing the Windows Mobile roadmap independently of Windows Phone 7. Windows Phone 7 is clearly targeted at the consumer space to complete with the likes of Apple iPhone and Google Android.
