  • Asus M930 is official - Nokia E90 competitor running Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard

    Asus has gone official with their Nokia E90-fighter, the Asus M930. Complete with Nokia E90-stying, the lateral-flipper brings the “Communicator” goods to the Windows Mobile camp. Unfortunately, this brick-ish Asus M930 Communicator runs Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard, so you won’t be getting your touch-on anytime soon with this handset. Still, if you’re looking for a WinMo alternative to the QWERTY-sliders from the likes of HTC, this Asus M930 Communicator might be your best bet. We already know everything there is to know about this tri-band GSM device, but here’s a quick rundown on the specs: - Windows Mobile 6 Standard - TI TI2431 processor at 450MHz - 3G + HSDPA - QVGA 2″ Screen (external) + 2.6″ WQVGA screen (internal) - 400×240 - Internal QWERTY, external 12 key keypad - 256MB ROM - 64MB RAM - WiFi / Bluetooth 2.0 - 2.0 Megapixel Autofocus Camera - microSD expansion - 158g - 113mm x 54mm x 18.7mm S eeing as how the Asus M930 Communicator isn’t slated to ship until CeBIT in March, we’ll have to wait a bit longer to get our hands on this monster.

  • Windows Mobile update to add higher-resolution widescreen display support

    Well, it’s about time. We’ve been stuck with our 320 x 240 WinMo resolutions for so long that it’s almost surprising that Microsoft has added higher-resolution widescreen support. We say almost because the bumped-up resolution support is pretty much the most logical and simplest feature update that Microsoft could have included in the new Windows Mobile 6.0 interface - so the update took us by surprise, but Windows Mobile 6.0 is overdue for this kind of update. Regardless, dynamic (resolution changes between landscape and portrait views) resolution outputs are going to support a host of display formats - from tiny displays with 240 x 240 resolutions to huge widescreens with DVD-like resolutions of 480 x 800. Accelerometers will be used to detect portrait or landscape orientation changes, prompting automatic resolution changes (dynamic) to match the screen’s orientation (much like the iPhone). And this is just about the simplest update that’s due for the new WinMo6 - we can’t wait to see what the rest of the updated Windows Mobile 6.0 will look like!

  • Palm Treo 750 get Windows Mobile 6.0 upgrade - as long as it's not branded

    Here’s yet another official Windows Mobile 6.0 upgrade for you guys. This time it’s unbranded, generic Palm Treo 750’s in the US (remember, Australia already got this update , so you can stop holding your breath now) that get the WinMo6 treatment. The WM6 update comes to us straight from Palm, so those of you using an AT&T-spec Palm Treo 750 are out of luck. Aside from the obvious bump-up to a fresh Windows Mobile 6.0 installation, Palm Treo 750 owners will be glad to hear that the update will enhance your email experience and allow for USB charging. We’re just left with one question - when is AT&T going to get with the program and release their own WM6 update for all those Treo 750 owners that opted for an AT&T-subsidized and branded smartphone? If you shelled out the clams for an unbranded and unlocked Palm Treo 750, and you want to get jiggy with Windows Mobile 6.0, head on over to Palm’s download site .
