Check out what Ballmer has to say about Windows Mobile in a News.com article. He even calls Crackberries and Palm niche markets, not that I can disagree with the statement 100%.

When it comes to smart devices, there really aren’t that many players. Basically, you have Nokia/Symbian, you’ve got us. Actually, I’ll be so bold as to say that the two of us stand out in that area. Then you have some guys who are more niche players–Palm is more of a niche player, (Research In Motion’s) BlackBerry is more of a niche player, those Linux devices from Motorola, particularly in China, (mean it) is more of a niche player.

On another note about Ballmer… if you have never seen him speak, go now, seek out his next engagement. You won’t be sorry. He is one of the most entertaining public speakers I have ever had the pleasure of sitting through.
