Crossbow Coming 2007
How many PocketPC users do we have out there? Are you hoping for some drastic improvements in the Windows Mobile OS? Rumor has it that we’ll be getting many needed improvements, at least that’s what the beta testers are saying that have gotten a little early Mobile OS love happening for themselves.
More important, Crossbow brings improved stability vs. its predecessor, Windows Mobile 5.0. After that release came out, Microsoft released an extension called Messaging and Security Feature Pack that provided BlackBerry-like direct push e-mail technology, but it lacked a refined user interface and seamless integration with Microsoft software, partners said.
“Crossbow is much more stable than the previous [Windows Mobile] version,” said another partner and beta tester, who asked not to be named. “It’s about stability — no problems in the first 10 minutes or the first 10 days.”
Beta testers of Crossbow-based devices said the maturity and stability of the platform and its development model and integration with the next-generation fleet of Microsoft software will drive high growth through 2007.
