Windows Mobile 6.5 Review Round Up
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.
