Some industry pundits are predicting email, security, and communications upgrades in the revised Windows Mobile platform when it arrives." Gartner analyst Ken Dulaney said, "If it is announced at the end of the year, which is my prediction, then shipment won't be until mid-2007."</i><br /><br />More information on the next Windows Mobile release, although as Jerry points out over at Smartphone Thoughts, with carriers involved, it may be quite a bit longer till we see the next Windows Mobile incarnation. Hard to believe that Windows Mobile 5 is quickly becoming "old news" while a year ago most of us lusted over it ;)
