Crossbow To Cross Our Paths In 07?
"Unstrung reports that analysts are now expecting that "Microsoft's (MSFT) next cut of its mobile operating system, codenamed "Crossbow," will arrive sometime in the middle of next year. 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."
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

Any thoughts on what might be in it? To be honest its difficult for me to work up a frenzy like I did over WM5.0
I expect it to have a few new features but wont address any of our desired improvements/fixes.
But thats the cynic talking.
