Don't think the tie-ins you mentioned are too compelling over anything Google and Apple offer, maybe there are some people who care about it. No way they ever see 20% of the market. I'd be surprised to see them hit over 5%.

I don't know what you are talking about with the push email. I thought that is exactly what BIS did, as well as the gmail android app. And can't android and iphones take advantage of push hotmail just as easily anyway?
Yes. Due to hotmail adding ActiveSync it can easily be pushed to an iPhone. Gmail as well, as they also support it. BIS will push any email-regardless of provider.
