Small point perhaps but a place I was working at five years ago was developing in house custom apps for their workforce on the old windows mobile phones (probably 5 or 6? can't remember) but they did it because you could dev in .net and well it did what they needed it to do. That was about 400 devices and they were not cheap back then.
