News: HTC Releases Windows Mobile 6 Upgrade for the HTC P4350

In an article on theunwired.net, author Arne Hess discusses HTC's recent release of a Windows Mobile 6 upgrade for its P4350 device. The article said in part:
 
"HTC Europe kept the word and just released the next long awaited Windows Mobile 6 ROM upgrade for its current line of Windows Mobile Pocket PCs. After O2 launched its Windows Mobile 6-enabled version of the HTC Herald (O2 Xda terra) back in April already, now also HTC released the Windows Mobile 6 bits for its version of the Herald, the HTC P4350."
 
With this current surge in Windows Mobile 6 updates and device releases, WM 6 continues to eclipse WM 5 as the standard OS.

Review: Free Push E-mail, Voicemail, and Mobile Search Software

"It's amazing how many companies are competing to give you their services for free these days. They obviously see phone-enabled mobile computing as the Next Big Market, and they're all positioning themselves to capture a segment of it. This makes my job easy. All I have to do is keep my eyes open and report on some of the more impressive new offerings I find.

In the last issue I covered free mapping services. In this one, I'll take a look at a couple free services offering push e-mail, a free voicemail service that offers multiple outgoing messages, some free mobile search options, and some new technologies that promise to change the way you access the Internet via your mobile device."

Article: The Windows Mobile Ecosystem

"In a strategy akin to Microsoft's PC distribution channel play in the 1980's, the company is once again leveraging large consumer and business distribution channels to get their products to market.

At the very top of the distribution pyramid of the Windows Mobile ecosystem sits the Mobile Operator (MO) or wireless carrier as they are also known. The MO's role in the channel cannot be underestimated; they are the lynchpins in deciding whether or not to adopt the Windows Mobile operating environment to begin with. They determine which OEMS will provide hardware handsets, work hand-in-hand with Microsoft on SDKs/AKUs to build and differentiate their offerings (while still maintaining consistency of the Windows Mobile user experience), and lead the charge in sales efforts to large enterprises. It is the Mobile Operator that needs to certify and accredit (CA) the device as "approved" on their particular network before anything hits the market."

Jim Karpen's Hot Web Site of the Week: AOL Mobile Search for Windows Mobile

AOL announced a new service last week that’s been optimized specifically for Windows Mobile Devices and Pocket Internet Explorer: AOL Mobile Search.

This mobile site offers a Google search as well as links to resources such as AIM Mail, Moviefone, MapQuest, AOL CityGuide, and AOL News. A single search gives you results divided into categories such as Local, Finance, News, Images, and Web. You can read more on WindowsForDevices.

I’ve long thought AOL’s mobile search is among the best. Like Skweezer, you can do a search and any result you click on will be optimized for the small screen of your device.

To access AOL Mobile Search on your device, point your browser at wap.aol.com.
