Windows Mobile 6 Announced

Microsoft has taken the wrapping off of its next mobile operating system, Windows Mobile 6, just in time for the 3GSM conference in Barcelona next week.

The new mobile OS is, as with most new things Microsoft these days, very Vista-like in its look and feel ; and Microsoft is promising that, unlike so much third party software, there will be tight integration into the new Windows OS from the get-go.

Other new major features will include HTML support in emails, Windows Live for Windows Mobile, file transfers in Live Messenger, and new versions of the office suite.

Here’s an interesting hands-on with the new mobile OS.
