What if....
They came out with 2 Surface Phones.
One with W10 Mobile, x86 based, the full meal deal with Continuum.
and...
One with Android/ARM-based.
Insane right? But unlike HTC with the M8 MS could pull this off and get so much good will from Google that they might just bring their entire suite of apps over to W10.
Right now MS needs something really BOLD in mobile and this would be it. Also don't do it apologetically. Sell the Android story as "Microsoft is giving the customers EVERYTHING they could possibly want". They could position the Surface Phone with Android as the BEST Android flagship on the market.
