The stolen Windows Phone is believed to be HTC Touch Diamond 2 and was given by Microsoft to Telstra’s CEO Sol Trujillo to try and test the new Windows Mobile OS. Sol handed it to an unnamed executive who was then pick-pocketed, if you were hoping to see some screenshots of the prototype WM6.5 and any custom changes Telstra has made , its not going to happen.
APC Magazine has confirmed from its sources close to Microsoft that the entire operating system and all the user data on the handset were remotely erased from the phone as soon as the theft was reported. It is not sure whether this theft was aimed at Telstra’s private data or getting hands on with the new beta version of Windows Mobile 6.5 and the new HTC Windows Phone. It also looks like remote cleanup of the OS did save the day and it might be a default feature built in to WM6.5 and that would be a welcome feature from both the corporate and personal point of view.
You guys would have seen the leaked 2009 HTC Lineup , but when HTC announce Touch Diamond 2 @ MWC you cant help but get excited. :). The Diamond 2 should come out in “early Q2″ and HTC CEO Peter Chou said Windows Mobile 6.5 will be a free upgrade for Diamond 2 and Touch Pro 2 users.
