War mobile operatsionok 


Since the first smartphones and communicators have been two years. During this time they have gone far ahead in terms of functional and had not only become a separate class of mobile phone technology, but also absorb a different sort of mobile devices - handheld computers. Is coming next revision of the approach to these devices, which will bring many changes: the creation of software that can utilize the resources of the communicator at full capacity, making it to the level of the computer with a simplified control. 
WindoWs Mobile - the collapse of the foundations 

Review I'll start with Windows Mobile 6.5, and my choice is not accidental, as the market share of smartphones and communicators, the company Microsoft's second-largest after Symbian. Fans of mobile "wind" have been eagerly awaiting the appearance of the updated operating system. When the network appeared first unofficial screenshots, no one believed in their authenticity, and from all sides was heard: "Why, it's Photoshop!». Members did not expect that Microsoft will reconsider the foundations and overhauls some persistent components. Deviate from the general argument and move on to the concrete. The first thing that catches your eye in WM 6.5 - a redesigned user interface screen today. Starts with changing traditions of Windows Mobile. Campaign Microsoft still decided to establish in its OS paltseorientirovannogo interface. The screen today is a tape of separate elements: a clock, SMS, Favorites, Internet Explorer, etc. You can browse it and select the components, each of which displays information about new events, messages, bookmarks 
etc. With the creation of paltseorientirovannogo interface company strongly late. 
This development is expected in the 6-th version of WM, but to the surprise of the public, this has not happened, and this incident was resolved by third-party developers. For example, HTC created the famous Touch Flo 3D, and Microsoft, though noting that the buyer is interested in innovation, we decided, albeit belatedly, but still produce 
paltseorientirovannuyu OS. Driving without a stylus touched not only the screen "Today", but all other sections. The tabs are turned over intuitive movements of the left and right, the famous cross grown in size and can get on it without much of a sniper skill. "Start" - as many in this word for heart "windose" blended ... But Microsoft has decided to make the second step of the horse and get rid of all the well-known element of the series. On the replacement of the drop-down menu come midway between the sections "Program" and "Settings". Simply put, the "Start" became a collection of labels. All the elements are scattered in the form of honeycomb, with a similar arrangement is present in all the other tabs of settings, applications and other things. As for the arrangement of elements, the solution is very bold and, no doubt, useful. Although not complex it does not have to manage with the fingers fit perfectly. Speaking about the "Start", or rather, its elimination, we note that nothing good in this for the WM and can not be. From this menu, ease of operation, few could argue (if you do not take into account its small size in standard form). First, the "Start" can be closed quickly by clicking on the white area, and secondly, to move quickly to the desired section: settings, programs, shortcuts, quick launch. Developers deny us this pleasure in the new version of the operating system. Of course, the standard "Start" was not sverhudobnym (because of the small elements), but it is worth recalling the development of the Touch Flo, where paltseorientirovannoe management greatly simplified. But Microsoft did not want anyone to copy (although we could do something similar on the menu in Android) and decided to get rid of one of the elements. 

After talking about the touch of a new version of WM, proceed to the consideration of its individual components and programs. Let's start with Internet Explorer. While Opera has developed rapidly and began to enter the preinstalled programs on your device, IE lazily moved from version to version of WM, not changing its clumsy interface. But in Windows Mobile 6.5 came his eighth version. At acquaintance with its updated annex the impression that the entire staff worked on its further development. IE is now "a friend of his fingers, and all of its management fully sharpened for them. As with Opera, the browser window when surfing spreads to the entire screen, leaving a single button to call all the other functions. Zooming occurs by double-clicking on the workspace, set bookmarks section, which is displayed on the screen today. In general, work with it comfortably, but without the small defects could not have done: the response to double-click is not always good, but on every web page there is a "slowdown" reducing the overall impression of the new version. Let's talk about the other components of the standard set of WM. Contact ... 

Immediately the question arises: where the change? Developers too lazy to add to contacts something new, deciding to stay in the scrolling list of your finger. Apparently, Microsoft believes that all is well and no need to redo it. Messages. Before us is very familiar to the module from the apparatus of a series HTC Touch. The program organizes all SMS, received / sent to you and your companion, in the form of chat. It is convenient because it does not have to review all the correspondence to find the right SMS. He to whom this kind of arrangement of SMS do not like, can change it to standard, which is also nothing has changed. Next in line - "Calendar". Words simply do not, some emotion. And he has not changed, only the turning of days, weeks and others can be implemented without a stylus. Microsoft employees could spy device calendar in ThundCal, where all the meetings and things can easily organize and edit with the fingers. 

So, the new operating system, which itself is difficult even to name: a new hat with the old holes. The developers put all their efforts on creating a beautiful three-dimensional interface, made rounded menu and tabs, but the usability is not added. Take the same screen "Today": This add-in was supposed to serve as a convenient tool for novices. Perhaps it is indeed more convenient, since all information is visible, but the development of third-party companies which are more intuitive and simple. Operating system looks more like a pirate refinement - hung thingies, powdered her nose and all. Microsoft was not ready for a new OS, released to tick, since the bulk of the staff working on WM 7. Let's hope that previous mistakes will not be tolerated and the product will really worthwhile.
