Re: Internet Explorer Mobile 6 - Preview
It's the emulator and development tools that make it 200MB. I doubt it will be easily extracted from the emulator package, but then stranger things have happened to surprise me.

The Windows Mobile 6.5 release will almost certainly contain this release of IE, and while I'm not a betting man, I'd say there are favorable chances of WM6.5 coming to the Diamond and Touch Pro variants.

What's the point? The point is that Microsoft refuses to be outdone by Opera and Skyfire, and it's in their interest to get with the program.

What's it like? It's decent in terms of usability, but the rendering engine is still IE6, so yeah... not the best in the world.
