"Crossbow" information slow leak
October 29th, 2006Over at GPS Passion they have a sneak peak at the upcoming Crossbow Phone edition. They have some great screenshots revealing some very interesting new features to Windows Mobile (WM) Smartphone. WM Smartphone is getting Mobile Office and Voice Command look to be the biggest items, they also have a Live Search Today plug-in.
A lot of “convergence” has happened…, with PocketPCs having had GPS and GSM/CDMA modules grafted on and Smartphones acquiring more power and the higher resolution screens of the PocketPCs. Today, the main differences are the touchscreen that remains a PDA exclusive and a more limited number of applications running on Smartphones, notably Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and GPS related.
