What will happen to current Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphones?
Microsoft will continue to support Windows Mobile 6.5 devices when Windows Phone 7 Series handsets are available. In fact, Kindel said that the company will work with its partners to release new smartphones based on Windows Mobile 6.5 for years to come and writes in his blog, “it’s not as though one line ends as soon as the other begins”. The company, however, has not made any re-branding decisions for Windows Mobile 6.5. In other words, it may or may not be called Windows Phone Classic.
