We’ve been waiting for Mobile World Congress for a few months now ever since we heard that Microsoft would be revealing Windows Mobile 6.5 and also announcing their new mobile services like "My Phone" and Windows Mobile "Marketplace". Microsoft is working hard to catch up with it’s mobile competition. Ever since the iPhone took the stage, Windows Mobile has taken a back seat in the smartphone marketplace. The newest version of Windows Mobile will be launching later this year and will give users an interface that is finger friendly, better web browsing, and better integration between contacts and communication. Along with WM 6.5, the Marketplace will allow users to directly install apps to their handsets just like on Android and the iPhone, while the My Phone service will allow cloud data backup for your calendar, contacts, and email.
We’ll be covering all three of these Windows announcements separately, but just wanted to give you guys a head’s up on what’s coming down the pipe line.
