The Windows Phone 7 platform has a heap of potential but still feels like a work-in-progress project. To fix features and as well as to add them, Microsoft will liberate an update sometime in March. The fresh update would consist of new features such as Internet Explorer 9 and multitasking. Somewhat critical missing features such as copy-paste will also be added to the platform. The platform will also support CDMA, so Microsoft can expand into more markets.

Microsoft has been in the news for their new partnership with Nokia. With the two giants working together, Microsoft cannot pay for to be the weak link. Steve Ballmer showed off the new Windows Phone 7 update along with a revelation of the Internet Explorer 9 browser on it beating Safari on the Apple iPhone 4. There weren’t too many other things mentioned about the new update. That’s not a good thing allowing for that the new platform has a long way to go and critics might have quite a few things to say about it. The event even had Nokia CEO Stephen Elop come on stage and mention why the partnership with Microsoft was a move in the right direction.

With so little being added and Nokia Windows 7 phones coming soon, we’re hoping Microsoft will get its act together in time.

Here’s the video announcement:

: Bing vs Google Mobile

Mobile devices that need info fast without all the glamour of the standard Google site. Bing has been rising in the charts but needs to find a way to continue to grow; that’s mobile Bing.

For reminding this is a Microsoft product because the Bing team keeps present something new for users. For example, in making Bing mobile, they added some mobile-specific features that will perk interest. The first is flight information, simply go to Bing and enter in flight number and you’ll be given gate info, departure and arrival info. That is super handy for mobile users that actually are mobile as they rush across the airport.

The NFL Feature is another new feature. Simply enter the name of your team or player and you’ll receive info on schedule, standings, and while the game is on you’ll get real-time stats. Super handy for data freaks and desire.

Not a big list but the Bing team will be adding support for more devices in the near future. Bing has added a special version for mobile touchscreen devices such as iPhone, T-Mobile G1 or Samsung Omnia.

Bing Mobile might even look good on a Windows Mobile device. Used the touchscreen version of Bing mobile to search for movies and compared to the same search on Google, the Bing Mobile search was much better looking, more complete and offered trailers without any extra work. It is worth checking out and with clear, short data you may find you don’t need a full featured browser on your mobile device. You will like it.

Acer is rolling out a whole slide of Windows Mobile and Android-powered smartphones this year. Firstly, we’ve got the WinMo 6.1-based DX900, which is really not good in looks but contains the powerful punch of twin SIMs underneath its homely shell. Most dual-SIM devices top out at EDGE, but the DX900 takes it to the next level with triband HSDPA on top of quadband EDGE.

Features: You’ve also got a 2.8-inch VGA display, WiFi, 3 megapixel AF camera, and GPS, so if you’re a two-line kind of individual, buy this in Europe and Asia.

Another is, the X960 ups the ante with HSUPA and 7.2Mbps maximum on the downlink, a revised 3D user interface, and a 3.2 megapixel cam and it also should be populating Europe and Asia as.

Windows Mobile 7 is a year away, but while Steve Ballmer was busy talking smack about Android, he did manage to confirm that Windows Mobile 6.5, which Motorola leaked, is real.

While he didn’t go into details, he hinted at an improved UI (one can only hope) and software flow. Neowin mentions that it’s also believed that 6.5 will be the first Windows Mobile release to have Zune software integration, since WM7 is taking so damn long. We could see 6.5 released in the first couple months of 2009.
