Apparently, Window Mobile 7 “basically addresses everything wrong with WM6 today”. While there’s no hard details on what that might mean, I’m guessing this, along with the purchase of Danger might see a more user friendly, up to date interface on the way.

That said, Gizmodo says the expected release date of Windows Mobile 7 will be mid-2009. If that’s true, it’s a long time to wait for improvements that Microsoft should really have made iterations ago.

Apparently, according to Microsoft, acquiring Danger will let it “deliver cool, new, fun mobile experiences”. Cool and fun aren’t words I’d associated with Windows Mobile in a million years – can you be fun if you’re part of a team in a unit within a unit within a unit – but fingers crossed Danger can do something about making Windows Mobile a little bit more intuitive and, who knows, maybe take Microsoft out of its business mobile straightjacket.
