Watch Windows Mobile 6.1 in action Print E-mail
By Julian Prokaza on Friday, 04 April 2008

Windows Mobile 6.1 videoIf you’ve got 40 minutes to spare and have more than a passing interest in the soon-to-be-launched Windows Mobile 6.1, Microsoft has a treat for you. Mel Sampat, Program Manager for Windows Mobile, has posted a video on the Windows Mobile Team blog that shows this latest revision of the operating system in action. There are already lots of screenshots of Windows Mobile 6.1 in circulation, but the video provides a much better look at how the new tweaks work, including:

  • The new Sliding Panel home screen (aka "Bronze")
  • All new home screen plug-ins
  • Threaded SMS
  • Copy & Paste support for non-touch devices
  • New Task Manager
  • Clock & Alarms
  • Windows Live and Live Search Mobile

You can watch the video after the cut.
