Microsoft (MSFT) said it will sell nearly 20 million Windows Mobile licenses in a letter designed to rally its smartphone partners. It's no coincidence that the pep talk comes just a few days before these the likely launch of Apple's (AAPL) 3G iPhone.

Todd Bishop has the Windows Mobile pep talk, which is designed to steal a little iPhone thunder. Charles Cooper says it's quite a salute from Microsoft - perhaps the one-finger variety.

Microsoft and Apple are both uncool. Time to get rid of the cell phone paradigm.

Linux is the future - small, portable computing that is wireless, networked, full keyboard and with VOIP so you can still make phone calls. It'll cost $300 and fit in a (big) pocket. $30/month for unlimited connect time from anywhere.

That's when I'm buying.
