While Microsoft has made it known that that most Windows Mobile 6.5 handsets won’t be able to make the upgrade jump to the Windows Phone 7 Series, there is still a small trick left – relying on the beta version of a Windows Phone 7 theme for Windows Mobile.

Don’t expect this to be refined since it is still in beta mode.
