Yet another reason would be if Microsoft wants to get into handhelds like they say they do

I may be wrong on this... but isn't the Zune HD going to be a kind of MS handheld?

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure they ruled out making it a gaming device, at least for the moment.

Yeah, after the Xbox losses and the EDD division losing some 130B this quarter, I think they are shelving plans for a handheld.
