Windows Mobile 6.0 Smartphones to have Office Apps?

Date October 28, 2006

gpspassion.com have got some very nice screenshots of the the next release of Windows Mobile - which is codenamed Crossbow, but knowing Microsoft’s knack for fragging cool names prior to launch (Origami/UMPC, anyone?), it’ll be called WIndows Mobile 6.0.

For Smartphone users, like me, the coolest thing about these screenshots is that they’re showing Office application icons for Word and Excel.

If Windows Mobile 6.0 does indeed ship with Smartphone version of these applications, it’ll be a major plus for corporate users of Exchange Push email services, because the only reason to carry around a GPRS-enabled PDA is so that you’ve got Office applications handy and, lets face it, carrying a PDA around on one of those utility belt things make you look like kind of a knob.
