I hear you, but I think the big difference here is that the MS PC ecosystem had microsoft as the elephant in the room. Vendors like Dell, HP and others have confidence in investing in a platform that they can sell because it is ubiquitous. (that's partly why Linux on netbooks failed) But in the phone space, Microsoft Windows Phone 7 is worse off than a red-headed stepchild.
Funny.
I had (and still have) a Nokia 1100, made in 2003, and even that phone had vibrating alert.

When it comes to Windows, I keep reminding people Microsoft's clients are not those who buy computers with Windows installed, but the OEMs who build them. Nobody buys Windows 7 - the ordinary user buys Dell (or Lenovo, or Acer, or Sony)
