In a (currently live) QnA session to Alex Reeve, Director of the UK Mobile Business Group through their Twitter account, @WindowsPhoneUK, it would appear Microsoft wont stop OEMs offering an upgrade to Windows Phone 7 Series. As seen in the below question and answer from the live blog or check out the question and answer.

Question from tracyandmatt

Will customers that have recently bought 6.5 handsets be able to upgrade to WP7 if their device meets minimum spec?

Answer

It’s early days yet, and that’s really for our hardware partners to think about

This is very exciting to hear and I just hope HTC offer an upgrade for the HD2.

"So the original "we're going to name Windows 8 on ARM something that won't be associated with Windows 8" isn't going to happen? I thought that would've been the best and most beneficial path to take. Oh well, only time will tell I guess."

My Microsoft Life » So Windows 8 for ARM might have a desktop

"[...] I have my fears about how Microsoft is going to handle Windows 8 for ARM devices; I think that if Windows 8 is used to describe both x86/x64 and ARM experiences even though they are different it is going to cause massive confusion for consumers. You can read about my idea for using the name Metro instead of Windows 8 for Windows 8 on ARM. [...]"

On "What’s in a name? “Windows 8”"

"Disappointing. I have no issues with the media controls. The number one request to developers was to add support for Bluetooth. Sort of embarrassing when I want to quickly transfer a file to a friend and I have to explain that my brand new Windows Phone can't do that. This is inexcusable. Bad enough we lost the ability to sync with Outlook as well as the USB mass storage device feature."
