> Exclusive: Windows Mobile 7 To Focus On Touch and Motion Gestures
Bookmark topic
"Microsoft is currently developing Windows Mobile 7, the first revolutionary change to its mobile device operating system. Recently, I was given a document by a source inside Microsoft that details the touch and gesture plans for Mobile 7. This document is a confidential internal use only document, used to explain the plans for Mobile 7, and contains well over a hundred pages of designs, ideas, and changes to the way we interact with our mobile devices.
Below, you’ll find over 3,000 words detailing my notes from the document. I can’t publish the document here, at least not until after the product is announced, to protect my sources. I will provide the document to trusted journalists in order to share and show proof of this information. If there is anything I leave out, please don’t hesitate to ask and I will try to provide a screenshot or answer.
The document appears to be from the past summer, and some of the details may change before the product is announced. However, the touch and gesture plans appear to be set in stone, and will be the focus of Windows Mobile 7."

Sounds like MS are preparing to rival (or at least try) Apples iPhone interface.

the two good features it does have that would be helpful on the iPhone is being able to change menus by scrolling across the top and pressing in a detailed area and getting a zoom pop-up. I'd prefer that to the pinch on the iphone. Other than that it seems behind the iPhone right now.
