Up until the last couple of years Windows Mobile faced no major threats in the touch screen smartphone division. As a result of this the innovation in Windows Mobile over the years has been minimal too. Check out the video below which shows the evolution of Windows Mobile.

Up until WM6.5 it looks the bloody same, no major changes in the UI department from Microsoft ( kudos to HTC for bringing out HTC Cube, TouchFlo and Samsung for its ToucWiz UI ).

Windows Mobile 6.5 is around the corner,… eer well its already leaked over @ xda but lets think about the official release. Ever wondered whats new with 6.5 from the 6.1 version that most of us use. Brandon Miniman from PocketNow.com has done a detailed comparision between both of the OS.

Some notable changes in Interface
1) Honeycomb Interface
2) Many Finger-Friendly enhancements
3) Pretty Scroll bars and soft-key menus
4) Call screen with dual sliders – one for answer, and one for ignore

Some new Apps are also thrown in
1) Internet Explorer 6 mobile
2) Skymarket – Windows Mobile App Store
3) My Phone – cloud-based syncing solution for contacts, calendar, photos, and other data
4) Outlook Live – enhanced outlook client for Windows Phone ( what are the enhancements , not so sure )

I am not that thrilled coz it reminds me of Vista , all new visual enhancements but a total FAIL coz it makes the system sluggish. So what do you guys think about WM6.5 ?

Brandon Miniman from pocketnow.com has released a video comparison between the iPhone and Touch HD YouTube application.

Mobilitysite is having a poll to see which OS would be the hottest in 2009. Head over there and have your say. I really dont see the iPhone winning it as its posted on @ a strong Windows Mobile site, but I think iPhone is going to be the winner unless Microsoft can pull off something really big with WM7.

2 of the best Windows Mobile Pocket PC with physical keyboard at the moment are the HTC Touch Pro and the SE Xperia X1. Both of them runs on windows Mobile 6.1 with custom Home Screen plugin. The Touch Pro runs on TouchFLO 3D while the SE Xperia X1 uses the panel interface, that being said if you are looking for a device with physical keyboard and planning to buy a Windows Mobile device soon these 2 are the best ones out there. So now the Million dollar question is which phone to get ?

Our friends @ wmpoweruser.com did a comparison between the two head over to the post ClickMe for their take on the keyboard on these 2 device.

Here is some more stats reg screen size and phone size on this post. Looking @ the screenshot of the keyboard I would go for the Touch Pro. Whats your take on this topic ? Which phone would you prefer ?
