Windows Mobile 2003
Microsoft has decided to re-brand their mobile solutions, and the result is Windows Mobile. This is more than just a surface change - the mobile devices group (Pocket PC & Smartphone) now lives under the Windows division and they all report up to Jim Alchin. For those that have interacted with Jim before, you'll know why this is a good thing: he's very down to earth, likes plain talk, and gets stuff done. This is a great move on Microsoft's part and really solidifies their commitment to the platform in my eyes. Microsoft cares deeply about anything bearing the Windows label, and now that the Pocket PC is based on the Windows Mobile platform, it means good things for all of us.

I guess this confirms that ActiveStynch is about to come under the Windows team for redevelopment and integration into the main OS... YAY!

Worse, Microsoft's Pocket PC page doesn't mention anything, either. In fact, it hasn't been updated since April 29th.

Give it time. It can take a while for pages to replicate through MS's server farm.
