12:01 12th February Barcelona Spain.

The long awaited update to Microsoft Windows Mobile 5 named (surprisingly) Windows Mobile 6 has just been announced. I was fortunate to get my hands on a new HTC Smartphone running WM6 this evening, and both the HTC phone and WM6 look great. In the few seconds that I had it in my hands I noticed that there is a new PV Player in the programs menu.

More details will follow shortly as the info comes available from Microsoft. Check out the Microsoft Press Release for more details.

The announcement itself fails to mention one of the rather interesting features of Windows CE 5.2 - oh, pardon, Windows Mobile 6.

Another thing that isn't mentioned clearly - WM6 seems to support Javascript and AJAX a bit better. That would indeed be a welcome feature, for example to use the full Google Maps on the Pocket PC. So far I could not confirm it though - the Crossbow ROM for the HTC Universal still seems to have a version of Pocket IE that does not support AJAX.
