【IT168资讯】微软下一代智能手机操作系统Windows Phone 7的底层内核曾一度被业界猜测是Windows CE 6.0。但近日微软嵌入式系统技术推广专员Bloch Olivier在自己的博客撰文“Windows CE is NOT dead! ”，证实Windows Phone 7基于的是WinCE 7核心，WinCE不仅不像许多业界人士说的那样已经被抛弃，相反，新版本即将开发完成，微软将在未来至少十年持续支持这一平台。

　　Olivier没有公布Windows CE 7更多细节，但是他表示新版系统中将会加入更多新功能，值得大家期待。

　　科技博客Engadget就此对微软进行了进一步追问，微软方面正式的回答是：

　　Windows Phone 7 is based on the Windows Embedded CE kernel – the next generation of the Windows Embedded CE platform will be Windows Embedded Compact 7 when released, and the current version is Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3. Although Windows Phone 7 was built on the Windows Embedded CE kernel at its core, the Windows Phone team has incorporated innovative features and functionality on top of the platform to develop an OS specifically designed to meet the needs of mobile phone manufacturers.

　　看起来，Windows Phone 7本来是基于WinCE 6的，但是随着时间推移，WinCE 7逐渐成熟，Windows Phone 7开始转移到新平台。
