Yeah, I'm very much aware that nearly every Mobius I come back saying that I saw something I really liked and I can't wait for it to happen, then I'm at a Mobius a year later and it still hasn't happened. It kind of sucks.

Indeed - I was quite disappointed to hear how little thought the Windows 7 guys are giving to Windows Mobile. It's like they forgot they're all working for the same company.

Everything you want to know about is under NDA, which is why you want to know about it.

Yes the WM part of Mesh is in closed beta, I just hoped that maybe you got some info on when they are planning to release it to public (even if only public beta). It's really annoying that after all this years there is only one sollution for WM to have a "real" wireless sync of something (bluetooth active sync doesn't count) and that's Exchange. iPhone third party development is not even a year old and you can find several applications that sync wirelessly to web/desktops...

This is a tough time for me. I want to buy a new device, but will my investment be null and void when WM 7 comes out?

I really like WM and wish there was something out there that excited me. How long will be waiting for WM 7?

If the rumoured timelines are true...you've got a while until WM7 comes out. So go buy that new device now.
