Microsoft Shows Off A Less Crappy Windows Mobile
Silicon Alley Insider — Microsoft had a head start in the smartphone software industry, but companies like Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG) have increasingly made Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows Mobile look out of date. So we're happy that Microsoft has made some progress in its user interface and Web browser for Windows Mobile 6.5, which CEO Steve Ballmer showed off today at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. We haven't gotten a chance to see it yet, but Gizmodo says it "looks great." You'll notice a honeycomb home screen, an App Store, better touch gesture controls, some screens that look like a Zune, and a physical "Start" button on all new phones. We ...

Windows Mobile 6.5 Hands On: The New Interface Rocks [Mwc'09]
Gizmodo — I like the new Windows Mobile 6.5 interface, specially the new home screen, which is brilliantly executed. Running on the new HTC Touch Diamond 2, everything looked smoother, cleaner, and matched the iPhone's lick factor. While everything seems to have been touched up, simplified, and polished to no end, what really makes this version of Windows Mobile 6.5 isn't the new, revamped browser—which uses the engine deployed in 6.1 but feels a lot faster and has a good new interface—or the honeycomb start screen—which I don't find particularly impressive—or the cleaner UI designed for ...

Back In The Game With Windows Mobile 6.5
Geek In Disguise — Windows Mobile 6.5 Running on HTC from Jesus Diaz on Vimeo. I have a confession – I worked in Windows Mobile for about three years, helping to launch the original SPV Smartphone. Over the last few years, I’ve become a bit disillusioned with Windows Mobile and whilst I would normally be testing new builds and new devices I’m still running an old HTC Excalibur. It’s just a great, solid device. Given this, I wasn’t expecting much from Mobile World Congress but then I saw the Gizmodo quote “it looks like Microsoft is back in the game” ...

Windows Mobile 6.5 Preview: Thank God its near!
Cellphone9 — Windows Mobile 6.5 Running on HTC from Jesus Diaz on Vimeo. I used to be a heavy Pocket PC / Windows Mobile user till I succumbed to the popular S60 (I had a ton of Nokia phones between 2006-2009) and the iPod touch user interface. But back in the day, friends who used Windows Mobile used to brag about how they could do almost anything with their devices — and Palm users couldn’t say much. The latter would argue that Palm is simpler — and the other team would argue that Windows Mobile was more complex. So if it was a battle they wanted, it could never be resolved. ...
