Windows Mobile 10 powers 1% of the mobile devices on the market, so when Satya Nadella states that Microsoft missed the mobile phone he is not exaggerating. The $7.6 billion write off of Nokia earlier this year signals a change in focus for Microsoft and Nokia phones will run Android instead of waiting for a proper release of the new Windows Mobile or a reincarnated version of an older mobile OS.  From what The Inquirer gathered from Satya's recent speech the new focus will be on something vague called the Ultimate Computer as well as their much more concrete HoloLens and the new VR market.  Surface Phone and Surface Mini are likely to fall by the wayside as HoloLens becomes the focus, hopefully we will see some models for testing in the near future as Microsoft has hinted at something happening tomorrow.

"Speaking at the opening dinner of Wall Street Journal Live, Mr Nadella said, "We clearly missed the mobile phone, there's no question," adding. "Our goal now is to make sure we grow new categories."
