Just because the CE version doesn't match anything you've ever seen, doesn't mean its fake. It means its unreleased...

And the guy from Microsoft has never seen anything like it either?

The first place I saw this supposed "WM6" was a Chinese site. The Chinese are really REALLY good at copying things, hardware, software, anything. It could be some Chinese programmer made his vision of what WM6.1 should look like. Who knows, maybe they integrated bits and pieces of real WM6.1 into a Frankenstein OS. I would think if it was a real, leaked prerelease, it would have have initially been an English ROM since Microsoft is in Redmond, Washington, not China!

There are some really convincing iPhone lookalike/workalike UIs out there, but they're still not the real iPhone.

If the Chinese were that good, why can't we enlist them to create the proper drivers that HTC refuses to make for our MSM7200 and MSM7500 devices?

I agree with GnatGoSplat that doesnt look like anything but WM6 to me. Saw nothing but the info screen saying WM6.1 to make me believe this is what has taken Microsoft so long to produce. I'll just hope it isnt an attempt to boost website hits, that would be quite sad. I for one will wait for official 6.1 release.

That 5.6 mb free memory blows too, I do better than that with the 3.16 leaked ROm with 6-7 apps open, probably double that. If that is the best Microsoft has to offer that is a pretty sorry release, I'd be embarrassed to be Bill Gates and put MY company name on that crapola.

take a video of the browser and its new zoom function

that should put the argument to rest.

lets just say.. if you don't have a clue about what you're talking about, you should read before you talk about it.

And I don't know where in MS this guy works at, but .... sigh

The 19176 build was probably first seen at the chinese site, but its definitely not the first build we've seen of wm6.1 ... there have been many other early ones.. and im pretty sure they were wwe...

This thing is awesome. Previously, When using windows mobile if you turned off the screen WMP would stop. Now, you can turn off the screen and it keeps playing. Before, I would work around this by using the device lock and having it toggle off the screen. This was not a great solution b/c every time I fast forwarded a song, the device would wake up and turn on for however many seconds I had it set to. Now, I can have the screen off and fast forward and will and the screen never turns on. FINALLY!!!!

Not to mention it's faster, Bluetooth works with MS voice command now...GPS is convenient but not as strong as my freedom mini.

We wish it was the Mogul. I could only imagine how sweet that interface would be on one! The threaded SMS program looks exactly the same as No2Chem nueROM's, but some of the other stuff just looks... sexier.
