They'll probably sell a sh!tload of WP7 devices. The marketing push will be huge (unprecedented?) and they'll have the support of multiple carriers. Don't discount Microsoft's mobile reboot. They've certainly learned a lot over the past 3 years and Windows Phone 7 looks to be compelling.
No single platform is going to be all things to all people. When things all shake out, I'm sure iOS, Android and WinPhone 7 will carve out their niches. The interesting thing to watch will be whether BlackBerry and webOS can stay (or in HP/Palm's case, become) relevant.
As for the funeral, that's just stupid. If it motivates their people though... Whatevs. Apple threw a symbolic one in 2002. Microsoft just can't resist copying.

With a show like this, even if Windows 7 is successful at any measure, this looks simply childish.

It's amazing how Microsoft manages to go to new lows of marketing again and again.
