hey guys it's brandon minuman from pocketnow.com and this is a quick tour of windows mobile 6.5 build 20 30 34 we've been tracking the progression of these builds into what we think will be an interim release of Windows Mobile that comes between 6.5 and seven this latest build brings a change that we we didn't really expect to see there are no longer any buttons up here in the taskbar or in the tray whatever you want to call it now it's pretty much just a notification bar so you can tap on the on the notification bar up here and drill into any of these specific notifications and you get these large finger friendly buttons kind of like an iPhone and Android how thin it is up there so now all of the buttons are side on the bottom and we can tap the start button and go into the standard you know windows mobile start menu and go into notes and it gets really weird to see so many buttons along the bottom obviously this isn't the final design that will see when this version of windows mobile comes out it's it's kind of crude right now but it kind of gives us an idea that Microsoft is removing the buttons from the top and putting them on the bottom which kind of makes sense it helps a little bit with one-handed usability if you can just keep your finger and your thumb all the way down here so we're going to keep tracking the progression of these builds and we'll be back follow us on twitter at twitter.com/nataliealund
