Another video of the Touch HD this time showing how easy it is to customise the tabs on the bottom of the screen in TouchFlo 3d. We should have ours next week so expect a massive review with videos and high res pictures aplenty. Personally really looking forward to getting my hands on this device. Video after the break.

The Unwired is reporting that during Motorola’s Thursday earnings call, Sanjay Jha, co-Chief Executive of Motorola and Chief Executive of mobile devices, said “Windows Mobile 6 has not delivered the experience that I think Apple has been able to deliver, but as you look at the plan that is Windows Mobile 7 and even 6.5, I think there are significant new added features which will help the platform”. According to Jha, Motorola will open a new office in Seattle “in order to work closely with Microsoft to deliver differentiation” via the Windows Mobile platform and a first Windows Mobile 6.5-based smartphone is expected in the second half of 2009. First we have heard of Windows Mobile 6.5 so hopefully we can get some more details soon.

The guy’s at Techradar got out of bed early this morning and headed down to the T-Mobile flagship store on Oxford Street in London to see what was going on, it seemed the queue make-up was very different to the one outside the O2 shop for the release of the iPhone 3G, not least because the queue only comprised of around 25 people compared to the hundreds that flocked to get their hands on Apple’s latest offering. Overall, the launch was much as expected. Getting people through the doors was a little slower than some hoped, as processing transactions took around 30 mins in most cases.

Just received an email from Clove with some great news, “we can today confirm that as of next Tuesday, the 4th of November, we will have limited stock arriving. This exceptional unit has received phenomenal levels of interest and is the ultimate Windows Mobile device. If you want to get your hands on it as soon as possible you can order it right now here. I have ordered mine and hoping to get it on the 5th November, should help the day to go off with a bang!!
As a regular user of Log Me In for my home PC’s this announcement caught my eye. Get fast, simple access to your remote Internet-connected LogMeIn computers whenever you want, wherever you are and soon with your iPhone or iPod Touch. If you haven’t used this before you install a small application on your client PC and then you can access it and take full control from a remote source through the Log Me In web interface, it works really well and has saved me lots of times before. You can register now for the beta right here.

As though we didn’t know this already, but HTC have via twitter announced that the Touch HD is confirmed as November for European and Asian markets. In a separate update they also announced that they will be having an informal meet up in Seattle on the 14th November without any more details than that.
Due to building works going on at home, the Mobile Tech Addicts Podcast will be delayed this week until probably Thursday, apologies for any inconvenience but I cannot get near my office as its stuffed full of wardrobes and beds. Don’t forget, if you have any comments or questions email us at [email protected] or leave us a skype message, our skype address is mtaddicts.
MobileTopSoft is forecasting that Windows Mobile 7, the next generation mobile operating system for handhelds and smartphones, will debut this week at the Professional Developers Conference (2008) in Los Angeles, CA. The event’s main focus isn’t Windows Mobile. Other platforms and development projects at Redmond will also be featured at the conference.
Just received an email from T-Mobile, if your interested in the G1 Android phone you will be able to order it online from tomorrow or get it in-store from Thursday at 9am. If you fancy being one of the first to see the G1 in the flesh, T-Mobile is hosting an exclusive early opening of their store at 287 Oxford Street, London, W1C 2DP (nearest Tube Oxford Circus). You’ll need to be there for 7am to find out what they have planned for the T-Mobile G1 launch.
