Check this out: according to Magnus Andersson, product manager of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, the device isn't actually tied to any specific technical platform, such as Windows Mobile, which means in the future we could see it run Symbian or even Android.

How do you feel about it? :)

Windows Mobile 7 has been spoted in action in a M$ Live Mesh commercial. If you're interested, it is shown in the segment between 1:11-1:15.

• GSM Frequency : 850/900/1800/1900;
• WCDMA Frequency: 900/1900/2100;

A little while ago ASUS has announced the availability of the Windows Mobile 6.1 firmware update for its P527 smartphone, but only today they've decideded to leave a download link on their website. So start upgrading!

Besides updating the OS, the new ROM has a number of functionality improvements, including fixed date and time bug, improved playback of multimedia files, fixed call bug, and upgraded functionality of the GSM/EDGE modem.

According to some sources, Microsoft might release a mobile version of its Internet Explorer 6 browser for Windows Mobile devices this year, i.e. pretty soon. The mobile IE6 will allow for quick switching between a site’s mobile version and its standard desktop version, and will also support Flash.

Who would've thought that Palm Treo 700wx would some day get a Windows Mobile 6 update. Well, it happened. The new ROM adds support for Microsoft Vista, HTML mail, Office 2007, Inbox search, grins, and other stuff, and is now available for Verizon subscribers.

HTC is preparing a new communicator called Opal. It appears to be the successor to the HTC Touch, and has a similar design.

HTC Opal Specifications:

• Networks GSM / GPRS / EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz;
• Windows Mobile 6.

This is first photo of the rumored i-mate "Hummer" WM 6.1 handset, and damn it looks bad. Specs are fine, and the phone's supposed to be ruggedized, but they could've atleast hide those exposed screws...

You should know, that most of the last year's rumored i-mate devices weren't released, and I think that "Hummer" won't be an exception...

The new Asus P552w is a newly announced Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro powered smartphone. It will be the first handset to use the finger-friendly Glide UI, designed by ASUS.

The company didn't announce the pricing or launch date, but the specifications were made public:

• 624MHz CPU;
• 256MB ROM, 128MB RAM;
• Tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900MHz);
