Windows Mobile Office 6.1 - Upgrade Done Right
By Mitchell Ashley on Mon, 12/03/07 - 2:10am.Hats off to Microsoft for releasing the Windows Mobile Office 6.1 upgrade the right way; directly to users. Over the weekend I upgraded to the new WMO 6.1 release which went flawlessly. Rather than dinking around with Samsung, (or Motorola in the past), the update was available directly from the Microsoft Download Center .
It's been very frustrating in the past waiting for the device manufacture to release software updates themselves, often times taking weeks or months to happen. Usually I have to ignore their software releases and download updates from mobile user forums or other sites. This upgrade went flawlessly. This is how all Windows Mobile upgrades show be done in the future.
