(12 votes)

Written by Andrzej

Sunday, 08 October 2006

Windows Mobile 5 is the current OS of choice for Windows Mobile users however the next iteration, codenamed Crossbow, has shown its face, check out the full Pocket PC homescreen shown above! It has a glossy title bar and soft keys and will feature Vista-esque folder icons etc.

Pieter Knook, a Microsoft Sr. VP, has commented that Microsoft plan to release an upgrade to their mobile platform yearly which is interesting and could mean a new OS with every yearly upgrade for pay monthly contracts. Knook has also commented that Crossbow will have strong links with Office 2007 and Exchange 12 as well as including the mobile version of Office Communicator, an Instant Messenger tool for enterprises.

Google cache caught a leaked presentation which told us that Crossbow will be released to manufacturer in Q4 2006 ready for release in Q1/Q2 of 2007 and that the next operating system (codenamed "Photon") will be released to manufacturers in Q4 2007 ready for release in Q1/Q2 2008 (Photon is set to include a new, flexible shell with modular containers and utilise the “Yamazaki” CE kernel).

Hi,

If you want to run a good professional or for free hotspot AmazingPorts provide a free of charge software that allow you to charge for or give access away for free. It also manages QoS and other important aspects of WiFi networking for example you might want to give away simple slow access for free - but charge for more broad band and higher QoS.

The solution easily installs on any standard PC with two network adapters

Please feel free to visit http://www.amazingports.com also http://www.amazingports.com/web60/en/faq.jsp

Regards,
Sankalp (AmazingPorts Team)
