Well, looks like the Phoenix rover has died due to the harsh Martian winter, just as was predicted. NASA knew they only had a small window with which to actually use the rover before winter set in and cut off the lander's solar power source, and today they issued a statement declaring the mission officially over.
Maybe next summer the rover will again become functional, but that is highly unlikely to happen.
