Crunchgear's Windows Mobile 6 Video

[Jason Dunn]

We've seen a lot of articles about Windows Mobile 6, but this is one of the first videos I've seen - the camera work is a bit dodgy, but hey, if you're interesting in lapping up all the Windows Mobile 6 goodness, I know you won't be complaining. ;-) Check it out...

Supports up to 5 different email inboxes...

That isn't accurate, right?

I think it's still eight in total, including the ActiveSync account...but I can't test that out right now because I have no WM6 device (drat!).

I'm surprised there is a limit, I doubt there's a technical limit, it's just something put in place by Microsoft, but why? Same thing with not being able to create Word/Excel docs and sync files. It doesn't make sense. :?

Here's the deal - it can handle 8 accounts total. I don't know how or if this is different than previous versions. The accounts break down like this:

1 - Text Message
5 - POP/IMAP
1 - Windows Live
1 - Exchange

I'm not sure where or how basic Outlook sync email would fit in. After 5 POP/IMAP accounts, the new account wizard only lets you pick Exchange.
