Just as a salacious Facebook profile picture will always be found by your boss, salacious unreleased-OS details in your accomplishments will always be found by intrepid bloggers. Some Motorola developers inexplicably included some features of Windows Mobile 7 in their LinkedIn profiles — nothing too juicy, but it does give us a few hints.
Handwriting recognition says “stylus support” to me, though I suppose it’s possible you could snap a picture of a page of notes and have your phone turn it into a document or something. I’m sticking with the stylus support.
Tegra support means media. Not exactly a big surprise, but it’s good to know that they’re going to be pushing that hardware on more platforms than the Zune HD.
MEMS sensors, accelerometer and compass: if it didn’t have these, we’d be pretty disappointed.
The whole list of details is here, but most of the rest is “Outlook DB management” or “Live search functionality,” that sort of thing. There is some talk about getting 7 out the door around April of 2010, which yes, I would highly recommend, Microsoft, thanks for asking. The longer you have to rely on 6.5, the more time your enemies have to work on something that leapfrogs 7.
