Microsoft is probably waiting to officially announce it in the Mobile World Congress that takes place next month but early beta versions of Windows Mobile 6.5 has already been leaked.

Like we mentioned before, there is no breath-taking updates. Right now the old Blue Angel devices could run this build ofcourse with a hell lot of bugs, after all it's an early build of beta versions.

All that we can see new is the sliding glass panels on Today screen. This was already launched in Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard (non touch screen version) and now bought into Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional edition as well. Apart from that, we also spotted some new lock screens and there's nothing more. No multi-touch or fluid interface. UI is still bland. Lets hope for Windows Mobile 7 now.
