Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23022 demoed on video

A new build of Windows Mobile 6.5 has been recently previewed on video, few days after several screenshots of its have appeared over at the xda-developers forum.

This Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23022 has some new features and it seems to be tweaked for use with capacitive touchscreen displays (hence those that don’t need a stylus).

For example, the OK/close soft button is now located at the bottom of the screen, instead of being at the top. Also, there’s a “iPhone-like magnifier” that should help users better control the cursor with their fingers.

Here’s the video preview:

Pocketnow suggests that this may, in fact, be an interim version of WM, between Windows Mobile 6.5 (shown on video last week) and Windows Mobile 7: perhaps Windows Mobile 6.5.1, or Windows Mobile 6.7.

    Windows mobile can survive if it would just do a complete overhaul like they are doing with Windows 7. Microsoft cannot look at a mobile OS the same they do for an OS on the pc. The ones on mobile are outdated quickly as far as performance and looks are concern. Looking at the new OS that are running on other phones are more nice looking and run a lot faster.
