Motorola’s CEO let one slip by letting people know that Windows Mobile 7 will be out in 2010, which makes us wonder whether Microsoft is serious about stemming the tide of its shrinking market share where smartphones are concerned, with Windows Mobile 6.5 still not out yet until April this year. Apparently word on the street has it that the first Windows Mobile 6.5 devices will be out this September onwards, while testers of Windows Mobile 7 can get their hands on a handset in November with a tentative release date of April 2010 for Windows Mobile 7 phones to reach the hands of the mass market. How crucial do you think it is for Microsoft to release their latest iteration of a mobile operating system in order to keep up with the pack?
