It's hard to say. I would be very surprised if a majority of the OS code 
wasn't in Windows. Of course I'm sure a bunch of it gets chopped, but I 
would guess (uninformed, mind you) that the WinPhone OS is to normal Windows 
like BusyBox is to Ubuntu.  Lots chopped out and left hanging, but enough 
there to make porting stuff like .NET and silverlight and all that much 
easier than if they started over.
