This post was published 4 months 5 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.Today is the day that Windows Mobile 6.5 hit the streets. There have been a lot of device announcements already today. There has also been a ton of buzz about Windows Mobile 6.5 today as well. Much of it is not so good though. I am not off the WinMo wagon myself, but I am disappointed with 6.5. I won’t rehash my feelings in this post, but I will throw a link to my 1st impressions. They might change as I use the OS a little more. On October 8th, I will grab the AT&T Tilt 2 and begin that journey.
So here’s a wrap up of what’s out there so far, I will start the list with our own resources, but make sure to read all the coverage.

Overall, it seems that Microsoft is getting hammered today. Lipstick on a pig, paintjob cracking already… Those are just some of the statements being hurled in Microsoft’s direction. We all knew what WM 6.5 was going to be, it’s no surprise. I guess my disappointment is that there were no surprises.
