I'm kind of wondering what it will be like too. Maybe they'll adapt Windows 8 to be great for both tablet and PC use, and keep Windows Phone 7 and its successors on phones. Maybe they'll expand WP7 onto tablets, and keep the ARM Windows for eventual ARM notebooks. I don't really know, but I'm curious as to what their strategy is.

from what I have heard MS doesn't have any current plans to bring Win Phone 7 to tablets (I think they probably should) currently. And Windows 7 will fully integrate touch/gesture controls and possibly have a specialised touch interface and add in ARM support and it looks like that is the direction they are heading. I have even heard rumours that MS are thinking of bringing win 8 to phones! 

I wonder if Microsoft might make it an all-in-one system that can be easily specialized for phone, tablet, PC or whatever. I hope they'll continue to support the WP7 style of OS if they decide to replace it with W8 though.
