Exactly. They wanted into a market
owned by Apple. MS dumped a ton of cash into building excellent hardware, a slick interface, and a very good Zune store. No one bought the Zune. Windows phones are Zunes with dialers. Windows 8 is Zune on a desktop. If that doesn't work, they'll try something else.
They did this with their OS, they did this with their browser, they did this with their console, and they will do it with their portable device.
