Microsoft Unleashes Bevy of Windows Mobile 6.5 Phones

With Windows Mobile 6.5 out Tuesday, it's now up to the wireless carriers and smartphone makers to bring out their best hardware for the occasion.

HTC is stepping up in the biggest way, with the HTC Pure, HTC Imagio, HTC Ozone, and HTC Tilt 2 arriving Tuesday or in the next couple of weeks. Samsung's also warming to WinMo with the Samsung Intrepid. As for carriers, all the majors except T-Mobile are on this bandwagon, so you'll have AT&T, Sprint and Verizon Wireless to choose from.

If you believe that the operating system is the heart and soul of any smartphone, you're probably more interested in Windows Mobile 6.5 itself than the hardware it's on. Sure, the reviews are pretty dismal so far, but we know for some it's WinMo or bust.
