We will see. Windows 8 will be the key factor to Windows Phone success. Moble is extremely important and microsoft is well diversified company to be able to float a devision for many years until its a success.
They really aren't losing that much money on mobile even with the Nokia partnership. They have the phone OS licensing revenue, advertising and app store revenue from the platform coming in, as well as Android patent revenue. They fronted the xbox for how many years with billions of dollars and I honestly don't think they are yet even a billion dollars in the red with the Windows Phone.
