It is the world upside down.

Most of us that have taken the time to actually learn to use WinMo are pretty happy with it, yes it has it deficiencies, but the guts are actually accessible, and more importantly tweakable... In that regard Android is more of a threat to WinMo for people who want a "full-access" tweakable/hackable mobile OS.

The iphone is a consumer device; Windows Mobile smartphones are for corporate users, primarily in IT. You're not likely to see 17 year old girls sporting a Windows Mobile phone with a stylus any time soon.
RIM's Blackberry is the real competition, which has clubbed the Windows Mobile OS on its home turf, the enterprise space, repeatedly stolen its lunch money and has publicly given it a wedgie.

In my experience its the faux-techno-savvy business people that cream themselves over blackberries...

We do have good reasons to believe it'll be a bigger, more complete OS - the base hardware requirements were leaked a while ago and point to an iPhone-like minimum spec... but the real questions are: what do we gain and what do we lose?
I know a lot of Giz readers have a hate on for styli, but I like being able to write and draw on my PDA/Phone. iPhone OS' Cocoa Mobile is great for little one function apps, but it sucks for productivity apps like Excel Mobile.
I hope we don't have to give up the good stuff in WM6 to get the glitz in WM7.

Of course I won't mind an OS upgrade, but it's not bad now. I never use my stylus, and I'm running 6.1 -no TouchFlo2D- on a 2.8 in screen.

from what i see here, most of the alleged "geeks" have no clue what it means to make something their own, aside of installing an app.
i've had 6.5 for months on my omnia, and that along with spb mobile shell 3 has turned my omnia into a smooth, fun device to use. the only problem i have with going without a stylus are my fat fingers, which make it frustrating for me to type on the screen in any kind of rapid fashion. i tried typing on an iphone and it wasn't any better. fat fingers are fat fingers, no matter which phone you use.
i will be getting a new omnia 2, and maybe with the bigger screen i will be able to type more comfortably.

Otherwise I COMPLETELY agree with your post. I'm just counting down until WinMo7 shows up on one of those sites...

Still trying to figure out if Sprint would let my buy up to the TP2 if I "break" my TP and call in my insurance coverage on it...

You're forgetting that, at least in the U.S., the iPhone is tied to AT&T. So if someone uses another carrier, the field is still wide open.

I believe the law is called "Mobile Phone Fanboi FUD Forced Fellatio Festival 2009".
