More Microsoft reviews , RRP: TBA

The good:

  • New shortcuts to make performing tasks easier
  • Added functionality to Calendar and Contact apps
  • New search function and HTML support for email
  • Good Windows Live integration
  • Standard Edition (formerly Smartphone Edition) now includes Microsoft Office Mobile with editing capabilities

The bad:

  • Some of the improvements to e-mail and the calendar app require that you have Exchange Server 2007
  • No notable enhancements to the multimedia capabilities

The bottomline:

Though it doesn't offer earth-shattering new features and interface issues remain, Windows Mobile 6 brings a collection of noteworthy improvements that makes its mobile devices easier to use and equips mobile professionals with more robust productivity tools.
