Windows Mobile 6.5

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

Today I read an article on Golem.de about the new Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system. It is rather an evolution of Windows Mobile 6.1, which is an evolution of Windows Mobile 6 and so on. If we think about it more deeply, we reach the conclusion that almost every mobile operating system from Microsoft is a further development with some new features, but they offers not much new. In fact, Microsoft responds with the last version of Windows Mobile only on the trend of the touch screens with finger operation. You know, the iPhone and similar bla-bla. Microsoft Internet Explorer was adapted, though, in my view, not very successfully. But I have not expected something else from M$. The Opera developers, were not able, to make a good copy of the Mobile Safari although they tried to do this. I had the opportunity compare both of the browsers at the same time and I understood that although Mobile Safari has no support of Flash, it does a lot more fun than Opera Mobile 9.5
