Hey guys.  For everyone wondering what M$ is doing on their mobile devices to compete more with Android and the iPhone, here is the lowdown.  The current official version of Windows Mobile is 6.1.  Sometime this year, coming very soon, is 6.5.  6.5 is a temporary version to help compete until they creat windows 7.  Windows 7 is to be a complete overhaul of the OS.  It is said to be completely new.  Windows 7 will probably come out next year.  When windows mobile 7 comes out, there will be an update to 6.5.  Microsoft plans to use two operating systems for mobile devices.  The Second version of 6.5 will be for less experienced users and Windows 7 will be for power users.

I am excited for windows 7.  I really dont care about 6.5 cause it is more of the same.  Since Microsoft is adding capcitative support and multi-touch in 7, its gonna be really new.

Any chance current TP2s running 6.1 and later 6.5 will be able to 'upgrade' to 7 or will those TP2s be limited to 6.x and you'd need a 'new' phone to run 7?

I can guarantee they will be rolling out 3 weeks before its release.  6.5 isnt even out yet and I have had it on my old Treo 750 for 2 weeks now.

I just found this out.  Apparently, Windows Mobile & will require a Snapdragon or Tegra CPU to run.  It will also require other hardware components.  My favorite is the 3.5 mm headphone jack.  http://www.engadget.com/tag/windows+mobile+7+chassis+1/

FYI:  A Snapdragon and Tegra CPU are the fastest mobile CPUs on the market.  The Snapdragon clocks at 1 GHz and the Tegra has 8 cores.  They are about 2 times as fast as the one on the TP2.
