Microsoft didnt want Windows Mobile 2005 to sound obsolete after 2005 and because they dont want to release a new version every year, WM 2006, etc they decided to just number them. This is actually a lot better this way. They've done this with the desktop Windows, though slightly different by using 'XP'.
