Microsoft sold more than 18 million Windows Mobile software licenses in its recently completed fiscal year -- about 2 million short of its widely publicized 20 million-unit target -- the senior vice president in charge of the business acknowledged this afternoon.
However, Microsoft was still able to increase Windows Mobile's overall share of the worldwide mobile-phone operating system market, despite increased competition from Apple's iPhone, Research in Motion's BlackBerry and others, said Andy Lees, senior vice president of the Redmond company's Mobile Communications Business, in an interview.
