We do not do product announcements, but we do feel compelled to share our experiences with the new version of Windows Mobile: it is a major change in the OS and it can affect the landscape of the mobile device market as we all know it. The question remains if this change is in fact an improvement for you in your daily life. To help you make up your mind, we have written down the experiences we have with this OS. This is a rather lengthy review, so we have added a table of contents to it, to help you find your way easily.

Our experiences are based on months of working and testing Windows Mobile 6. We used the new OS during our own work and business situation intensly. We personally focussed on the overall usability of the device for business users. In this review mainly focusses on the value of the new OS for business users, not on the esthetic value of the new appearance nor on the new possibilities for developers. We want to focus on what business users would gain from switching from Windows Mobile 5 to Windows Mobile 6. In our opinion there is a lot gained by this transition, although there are some critical notes as well.
