Rumor alert: Might the coming Windows Phone 8 operating system have even more in common with Windows 8, architecturally, than the OS kernel itself?
From All About Microsoft:
RedHawk to be part of Microsoft's Windows Phone 8, too?
One rumor I’ve heard from a couple places now is that Microsoft may start talking publicly about “Apollo,” a k a the Windows Phone 8 operating system, at the show, which kicks off at the end of February. (Will the Softies talk “Tango,” too? I haven’t heard.)
As Microsoft rumor patrollers may recall, there’s been lots of talk and speculation – informed and less so — that the next version of the Windows Phone OS will swap out the current core (Windows Embedded Compact) for some variant of Windows. The most believable/likely version of this rumor has Embedded Compact being swapped out for MinWin, the detangled Windows corel. Microsoft has neither confirmed nor denied this.
