Windows Mobile 7
Microsoft’s latest operating system Windows 7 has met the expectations of consumers, but 
enthusiastic mobile phone users looking forward to enjoying the new mobile with the Windows Mobile 7 operating system will have to put their expectations on hold until late 2010.
Moreover, Microsoft’s software giant UK head of mobility, Phil Moore, has said that the company will not launch latest Windows Mobile until the latter part of 2010.
However, Moore also said that the near release will as well allow Microsoft to give the enterprise users and general Windows mobile users exactly what they want, which will include focus in adaptability of the touch base User Interface.
Microsoft’s verdict to delay the release of Windows Mobile 7 is perhaps not especially given that platform stopgap Windows Mobile 6.5 was launched to fill the gap when the seventh version of the mobile operating package missed its initial 2009 completion target.
However, great commitments related to a product release after 12 months are unlikely to help Microsoft’s position in the global Smartphone market.
With 46 percent of the market, the Nokia’s Symbian is at the top of the pile. The BlackBerry is with 21 percent, and Apple’s iPhone operating system is with 18 percent, and the Google’s Android managed to secure 3.5 percent of the market.
It's been nearly three years, since we first learned of Windows Mobile 7; in that time, the OS having flipped, flopped and morphed to the point that what has arrived today in 2010 bears little to no resemblance to what was envisioned in early 2008.
And that's a good thing.
As the smartphone OS the world has advanced in recent years, Microsoft needed to start fresh, to re-think what a Microsoft mobile OS should be. And that's what they've done.
Windows Mobile 7, renamed Windows Phone 7, is the result of this soul searching.
In this Pocket PC Central Product Brief, we'll provide an aggregation of rumors and official statements regarding the upcoming Windows Phone 7 OS. This information will continue to be updated over the remainder of 2010, so drop back by regularly.
