I know these are "concepts", but those are what lead to future realities. Go Microsoft!]]>Jan 19th 2009 2:47PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/
In my opinion they have functionality right, now if they make a nice form, and polish, they will have a kickass OS :)]]>Jan 19th 2009 6:41PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/
It's important to remember that Windows Mobile used to be PDA + Phone. Not Phone + PDA. This distinction is still the fundamental problem with Windows Mobile. It's an awkward phone because it's like using your laptop as a Phone. It wasn't designed with that as its core functionality.]]>Feb 8th 2009 8:43PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/

As for the images...why is there a clock on the picture to the left that doesn't match the time?]]>Jan 19th 2009 6:51PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://community.winsupersite.com/blogs/paul/archive/2008/08/31/microsoft-skyline-skymarket-and-skybox.aspx), but at the time he didn't know what Skybox or Skyline was.]]>Jan 19th 2009 3:24PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/11/12/windows-mobile-6-5-screenshots-have-a-little-zune-in-em/ ) it references these pics as well, and someone notes how certain Icons are from OSx. I dying to know if this is a fan made concept or somethign more. But i doubt MS would have identical icons as the Mac OS.

I would love to be mistaken though, anything to breath some life into the aging and slow WM.

Oh, how I wish it weren't a copyright violation for MS to call their app store 'SKY MALL']]>Jan 19th 2009 7:56PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microsofts-skybox-sync-service-set-for-a-february-unveiling-ne/
If this new UI eventually comes out, will it be possible to update device such as HTC touch HD, PRO and diamond to it?
and if a new WinMo version like 6.5 or 7 comes out, is it possible to update if i have WM 6.1?
i'm pretty new to WinMo as i'm about to buy a new phone and I want to make the right choice on buying an HTC or waiting for the n97.]]>Jan 20th 2009 10:37AM
