Windows Mobile 6.5.3 feature list

After the announcement of the Sony Ericsson Aspen which listed one of its features as Windows Mobile 6.5.3, Mary-Jo Foley of ZDNet got a list from Microsoft detailing what's new in this version. Here are its ease-of-use features:
  • Capacitive touchscreen support
  • Platform to enable multitouch
  • Touch controls throughout system (no need for stylus)
  • Consistent Navigation
  • Horizontal scroll bar replaces tabs (think settings>system>about screen)
  • Magnifier brings touch support to legacy applications
  • Simplified out-of-box experience with fewer steps
  • Drag-and-drop icons on Start Screen
Aside from the Sony Ericsson, Garmin-Asus also announced its nuvifone M10 with WM6.5.3. Check out the original blog post on ZDNet for the full list of features.

Editor John Chan's love for gadgets can be traced back to the days when he disassembled his toys and couldn't put them back together again. He practices great restraint in not opening up every review product that comes through the CNET Asia Labs, and before that, in his previous job at HardwareZone. He has reviewed items big and small, from mobile phones to projectors and feels everyone should carry a multitool at all times in case of MacGyver situations.
