NDA dosent stop Windows Mobile 7 impressions being leaked
It looks like the lucky guys who got invited to Mobius 2009 had a chance to see Windows Mobile 7 in action , though there are no official reports of this. Rumors are flying around that WM7 is ground breaking in terms of design and usability.
Twitter Message and a post via Solopalmari ( both the original twitter message and the blog post has been taken down , looks like Microsoft wants to play the WM7 cards close to their chest.
Translation of the Blog Post from Solopalmari ” Revolutionary, no need to take away: the next version of Windows Mobile, as shown by the leaks and the first screenshots of the new system, the Web will soon be spring, we are faced with an upheaval of the logic of interaction and not just a substantial revision of the interface. The concept of “applications”, as the programs continue to live their important identities, will bend to the principle of “user experience”.
Finally the performance, the fluidity in the display of screens, images and icons becomes a priority. As powerful and versatile Windows Mobile will be next, will never submit to slowdowns and delays in the response. How will, indeed, as they did to achieve this result is not yet technically clear. But developers say Microsoft is certain: the experience of use to forget the “old” Windows Mobile. “
