News:  Microsoft's New Windows Mobile 6

In an article posted on WindowsForDevices.com, the author talks about the unveiling of Microsoft's new Windows Mobile 6 operating system. The article said in part:
 
"Microsoft on Feb. 7 unexpectedly unveiled Windows Mobile 6, the latest version of its software platform for mobile handhelds, a week before the big Barcelona 3GSM mobile technology show. The new platform is more an evolutionary update than a complete bottoms-up OS rewrite, however, PCMag.com reports."
 
WM6 will apparently be more of a large upgrade to WM5 that doesn't address "deeper problems" rather than a totally new platform. Will this hinder its success?
