According to the report, the biggest difference between the current Windows Mobile 6.5 and Windows Mobile 7 is that the latter supports capacitive touch. Yes, the HTC HD2 with Windows Mobile 6.5 does have a capacitive touchscreen and does have multi-touch functions, but only in certain file executions like Office Documents, web browsing and e-mail. With Windows Mobile 7, all functions will be able to support multi-touch.

I know most ppl really don't care about WinMo at this point and you certainly cannot blame them, but I am excited for Windows Mobile 7! I don't know what it is but I am anxious to see what Microsoft is going to bring to the fold. Go Redmond!

It will be exciting to see what they can bring. They have the perfect opportunity to revitalize their OS if they can make some things happen.

Hey, can WM7 make multi language function like Apple does? right now all the WM cellphones are just one language in each cellphone, either it is all chinese or english. I am talking about the menu languages.

right i agree with you. looking at the successes and failures of what the other OS have been doing should have given microsoft something to work with. i just hope that its not some 2 bit apple / android platform knock off. winmo users want some action too. i mean windows 7 on the desk/ laptop wasnt ground breaking but it was a major improvement to xp and vista. and besides. if it (winmo 7) does suck the htc superstars will fix it

Windows is going to become absolute thanks to Android. Android is going to take over the world, period.

I think its waste of time comparing Windows Mobile 6.5 and Windows Mobile 7 as the features of Windows Mobile 7 is not yet announced. There is ample of time for Windows Mobile 7 to enter the market. I would say rather wasting time waiting for Windows Mobile 7, you can now use Windows Mobile 6.5 and check the amazing features and experience the best.
