Windows Mobile 7 Details Leaked – Multi-touch, Motion Gestures

InsideMicrosoft just got a gigantic scoop of Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 7, due to be released in 2009. This isn’t Windows Mobile 6.1—which we’ve seen leaks of recently—but the next full version of Windows Mobile that fixes a bunch of problems we’ve seen with the platform. The huge changes are multi-touch gestures (including flicking, swiping and drawing on the screen), motion gestures (shaking the phone), Windows Vista-like redesign of the entire UI, better finger-based navigation and a desktop-like Internet Explorer browser. It’s totally amazing, and fixes a bunch of the complaints we had with the platform. InsideMicrosoft has the full details.

    Why aren’t the Australian versions of these stories reproduced verbatim!?

    I had to go to the US site just to get the link to the original story.

    This isn’t an uncommon occurrence either. In the last 2 weeks, I’ve had to go to the USA site around 4 times – it just shouldn’t happen!

    Please fix it or I’m just going to subscribe to the USA version. This is getting beyond a joke!
