Despite our coverage of Android we still remain Windows Mobile / Windows Phone fans, so it's hard to keep reporting on the bad press from the 6.5 launch and Marketplace localization issues. Today there's yet more bad news for Marketplace and Microsoft...
Hey, look - it's the Armani phone we heard about some time back. We thought it had been cancelled, but no - it's here at last. At first look it looks like a re-sprayed HTC Kaiser but the specs are definitely an improvement. A 3.5" AMOLED screen, 5 …
Let me bring you up to speed with something that’s been happening with the new Windows Marketplace. It’s arrived on WinMo 6.5-powered devices and there’s already a very easy way for everyone else to get it too. There’s a problem though, and it...
Here's the new Windows Phone TV ad. You can see it below from YouTube, although this Facebook link seems to show it in better quality. The ad is part of the marketing campaign to launch the new "Windows Phone" brand and it's actually quite a good way ...
Bum. It looks like Orange won't be ranging the HTC HD2. We're hearing rumours that T-Mo and Vodafone will, and we know that o2 definitely are, so that only really left Orange and "3". Of course "3" haven't gone near an Android device and it's been a l...

Sheesh. Is every story about the HD2 ? Well yes, yes it is. This 1Ghz super-phone is doing something to the loins of Windows Mobile fans everywhere and the HTC Sense interface looks smoother than a frozen snooker ball. Doug Purnell has spoken to o2 to...
Another day, another HD2 video. Normally we prefer the "real hands on" videos but this official promo vid is rather spiffing. The weather tab looks beautiful and the video concentrates on it for quite some time. Hmmm.. it's as if they know that us Bri...
If you're sitting down to do some lunch-time browsing I'd heartily recommend this BBC news story. It covers the recession and how it's affecting mobile phone sales. Whilst many "mid-range" handsets are being hit by the world credit problems, smartphon...

It can be a tad confusing when you're trying to find which phone is available and which network it's available on. The new Windows Phone site now has a "Phone Explorer" which shows you the handsets available in your country and where to get them. Just...
We're running out of ways to say just how excited we are about the HTC HD2. It's brimming with specs and has a large but slender frame. It's also the first ever Windows Mobile (or Windows Phone) with the HTC Sense experience. There's a 800x480 multi-t...
TechRadar have got some interesting info on the new Omnia handsets. The Samsung Omnia II will indeed be available on Orange (we kinda guessed that much). There's other news though - the Samsung Omnia

Would you believe it ? T-Mobile have finally posted the HTC Hero / G2 Touch ROM upgrade. It's arrived some time after the Orange update and the long delay has upset quite a few T-Mobile customers. The download, available here should at least go some w...
Today being the the launch of 6.5 we're happy to see "the" handset of the moment announced at last. The HTC HD2 will have the latest 6.5 OS and comes with HTC Sense (yes, the software you saw on the Android-powered Hero). It'll be available later this...
We've already had a good poke around with the new WinMo 6.5 and were more than impressed with the My Phone service. Although it's still a little stylus-driven the idea of storing your pictures, contacts, texts and other important phone data online is ...
You may have seen the leaked builds of Windows Mobile 6.5, you may even have installed it, but during our time with the Touch2 we finally got time see the official release. We've detailed our thoughts on the new OS within the review. In short, the han...
