You can blame the absence of Cobalt or Palm OS6 on ACCESS and their high licensing price to Palm for Sony leaving the PDA market.
To me it looks like a nicely formed smartphone packed with necessary features for the business folk. And with Windows Mobile on it one can count on it likely having the best compatibility with their business's email, Sun Java and/or apache server as well being able to easily get developers to create apps that fit other needs. I'm sorry if many businesses don't crave anything diverse and exciting.

No, I blame Palm for that too, since they were dumb enough to split off the OS side of the business in the first place.
If Palm goes under, that was the decision that killed them.
