Then again, I hate the Hex Layout. I'd rather have the icons arranged in a grid like in Explorer.

Reminds me of Blockbusters.

Great text rendering.

that's sarcasm right? lol

This is high DPI device - so on actual device text would not look big and ugly. Antialiasing is rather useless in this situation.

Still far from the RTM I hope...

Has a long, long way to go.

Lovely , Im holding out for the Samsung Louvre but its nice to know they're are 6.5 devices for power users allready .

Wonder if it will be hacked onto my disused axim x51v

Hmm... voicemail needs to be capitalized... and a few characters displaying incorrectly in the first screenshot... other than that, it looks good!

I hope that there will be an update for the Samsung Omnia. At least this looks better then WM 6.1.

#8.1 +Frazell Thomas on 16 Feb 2009 - 03:32

Maybe it is just me alone, but I'm not looking forward to 6.5 at this stage (it is too early to say with just these minor shots and pre-release vids)...

I don't like the new honeycomb start menu replacement. I find the start menu in its default (not "touch enhanced") setup perfect...

I hate the new today screen so I hope I can turn that off and go back to SBSH Pocket Breeze...

Visual voicemail?

#10 njlouch on 16 Feb 2009 - 09:23

Gotta say, I HATE the 6.5 interface so far. It seems to provide nothing new.

I already have large menu's, I already have a decent "home" layout customised to my needs.

looks a bit ugly

Do we really need to be seeing MS' kludgy design process? It doesn't reflect too well. Show us a teaser, then show us the finished product. Done.
