If you didn’t know, Microsoft is planning to launch an update for Windows Mobile 6.5 that will update the operating system to 6.5.1. Why exactly they didn’t include this major overhaul in the 6.5 release is beyond me but what we have for you above is some eyecandy showing off the new mobile OS’ features.

As you can see, Windows Mobile 6.5.1 will clearly make it easier for the average user to operate the software using nothing more than their fingers with previous versions of Windows Mobile catering more towards a stylus.

When will 6.5.1 be out? We’ll have to wait until Microsoft says anything more to make any guesses.

Windows Mobile 6.5 has just been officially announced and Microsoft is already cooking up updates. We knew well ahead of the actual roll out that the new Microsoft mobile OS was not as impressive as people wished for it to be. After all, even Microsoft is looking forward to Windows Mobile 7, so why should we bother ourselves with Windows Mobile 6.5 in the mean time?

Windows Mobile 6.5 is not exactly a disappointment but it’s a mobile OS that needs more work. That’s why Microsoft has come up with Windows Mobile 6.5.1. The update isn’t official yet but you can find it on various forums already. The update is supposed to tweak the UI and make it more touch-friendly in order to improve your overall Windows Mobile 6.5 experience. In case your Windows Phone plays nice and you’re not having any problems dealing with menus or any other features of the user interface then maybe you don’t need this update after all. Microsoft is planning to launch Windows Mobile 6.5.1 in January 2010 only, which gives you plenty of time to discover any bugs that could use some sort of fixing.

So how do you find Windows Mobile 6.5 so far?
