The guys at Mobile-review have come up with an index about the latest version of Windows Mobile. Windows Mobile 6.0, a successor of the powerful Windows Mobile 5.0, looks to be nothing more than a second edition, if anything. The “new” operating system has undergone a facelift, with some basic changes.

The list of major changes introduced in Windows Mobile 6.0 for Pocket PC:

• Revamped outlook, refined icons;
• Totally re-mastered sound theme;
• Increased interface speed;
• Bundled IP-telephony (VoIP, SIP standard);
• Smart Dial 2.0, fast search through contacts, call history; removable on-screen virtual keyboard;
• Any tune can be assigned to any event;
• Support for shortcuts in Outlook Mobile;
• Full-fledged meetings arrangement system;
• Support for HTML in messages;
• Smart Filter – handy and fast search through messages;
• Numerous MS Exchange 2007-tailored changes;
• Integration with Windows Live online-services;
• Marketplace – purchase, download, and install directly from the device;
• Encryption – bundled memory card encryption

Unfortunately, internet explorer still lacks tabbed browsing, or even opening multiple windows for that matter. Also, the mobile office hasn’t really been tweaked, nor the multimedia tools. I have a PPC-6700 with Windows Mobile 5.0. This basically looks like a Windows Media Center Edition GUI with a few”hotfixes”.
