You know, I’m over Windows Mobile updates, it seems like I’m going to have to get married, create progeny, and wait for  the grand kids to start appearing, before I get to have a look at  WinMo 7. Has anyone else noticed that there is a windows update link in WinMo 6.1 that does nothing? All of the hubbub about  Windows mobile today, is focusing on the fact that there is an actual release date for Windows Mobile 6.5, May Eleventh!

Woo Hoo, you gotta be kidding right, a release of the actual OS, does not really mean your gonna be loving it any time soon. It has to be something device manufacturers are kosher with, and the flow on to you the consumer, may take a little time!

The fact is that top line developers are creating applications for a  sluggish, underdeveloped OS that is crawling along at a snails pace [note: a sloth may be slower] and making them work. The Question is: When will Microsoft see the value of the Mobile OS, and invest in it appropriately?

Streamlining is probably the key for most of us, the reliance of the NetCF programming base for WinMo does actually bloat a lot of programs for the format, and let’s face it, a lot of major developers are stuck in 2003.

Most of us should realise that we aren’t going to see major changes in the near future with WinMo, but we still stay loyal, Go Figure?
